Current inhibiting action in anodizing have extensively been examined with 10vol.% sulfuric acid and direct current, 99.999%Al, 99.99%Al, 99.85%Al, 1S, 17S, 52S, 63S, hydronalium, silumin; aluminum mother alloys such as Al-Cr, Al-Si, Al-Ni, Al-Mn, Al-Cu; copper, steel, lead, stainless steel (18Cr, 18-8) and titanium being used as specimens.
With the pure aluminum materials, current inhibiting action was stronger in the order of 1S, 99.85, 99.99 and 99.999. Supposedly the impurities in aluminum play the part of inhibiting the anodizing reaction.
V-DA curves obtained from those materials could be classified into 3 types, namely, swift upward, steadily increasing and fluctuated types as shown in Fig. 7-9. Each curve well shows how the action occurs.
Titanium showed the strongest inhibiting action, and
V-T relations of this material were studied under constant
DA as shown in Fig. 6.
Next, partial distribution of current was examined about most specimens mentioned above; that of 99.99%Al or titanium being taken as standard anode. The connection of electrical circuit of this experiment is shown in Fig. 1.
Results obtained will help select the practical method of anodizing the products composed of the different materials, and suitable materials for racks and tools of commercial use.
