Aluminum alloys used for aerospace applications provide good strength to weight ratio at a
reasonable cost but exhibit only limited corrosion resistance. Therefore, a durable and …

Anodization of valve metals and alloys is a powerful tool to control nanoscale architecture for
many metal oxides. Except for aluminum, the most explored system is self-organized oxide …

Nanoporous anodic aluminium oxide has traditionally been made in one of two ways: mild
anodization or hard anodization. The first method produces self-ordered pore structures, but …

Handbook of Nanophysics: Functional Nanomaterials illustrates the importance of tailoring
nanomaterials to achieve desired functions in applications. Each peer-reviewed chapter …

Using a sputtering-deposited titanium substrate, incorporating six equally spaced
nanolayers of Ti–W alloy, the volume and composition changes accompanying the formation …

Conventional anodising electrolytes based on sulphuric acid, oxalic acid and phosphoric
acid have been used to form nanoporous layers on AA3003-H14 and sealed with silane …

Self‐organized, anodically grown titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes have been readily
studied as anode material in various ion batteries. The simple way of nanostructuring via …

The growth of porous anodic films on iron has been examined at a constant current density
of 50 A m− 2 in 0.1 mol L− 1 NH4F− ethylene glycol electrolytes containing 0.1− 1.5 mol L− 1 …

Anodization of valve metals is a powerful method to form anodic oxide films with compact,
nanoporous, or nanotubular morphology. This method allows controlling and tuning the …

A tungsten tracer introduced into a sputtering‐deposited aluminium substrate was employed
to investigate pore development in anodic films formed at 3 mA cm− 2 in 0.25 m chromic …
