Anodizing
Anodizing is an electrochemical process to convert the metal surface into an anodic oxide finish that is durable and highly corrosion resistant. The anodic oxide structure originates from the aluminum and is composed entirely of aluminum oxide, in the simplest terms the aluminum oxide is grown from the underlying aluminum substrate. Anodizing is extensively used in the Aerospace Industry to make aluminum components durable and corrosion resistant.
The anodizing process consists of five broad steps:
Benefits of Anodizing:
Corrosion Protection
Wear Resistance
Modifying Electrical Conductivity
Improved Adhesion
Friction Modification
Aesthetics
- Corrosion Resistance
- Wear and Tear resistance
- Aesthetic finish with a range of colors available
Types of Anodizing:
Chromic Anodizing
Aluminum Anodizing
Hard Coat Anodizing
Common applications of anodizing include:
Components from the Aerospace Industry.
Architectural equipments like, Roofs, Window Frames, Ceilings, exterior components on buildings.
Computer hardware and household appliances.
