Aluminum and its alloys (99.98, 99.9, 99.3, 99.2, 3S, 52S, 17S, Alcoa 355, Silumin and Hydronalium) were anodized in the aqueous solution of sulfamic acid (20-50°C, 5-20wt%) with d. c., 1A/dm
2. Relations between bath voltage (
V) and anodizing time (
T) were examined, and the formation of the porous coating on the anode was confirmed as shown in Fig. 2-17.
At higher temperatures and concentrations, steady forms in
V-T were obtained and uniform coatings were formed on the anodes. However, at lower temperatures and concentrations, fluctuated forms in
V-T were obtained, and local corrosion of the anode could be observed.
It may be considered that the weak solvent action of the electrolyte on the coating produces the compact coating at first, and then locally attacks the coating at the weak points. It is also presumable that the successive and concentrated current through these points results in local corrosion as illustrated in Fig. 18-27 and Photo 1-5.
