Anodising

Anodising is a electrochemical process wherby aluminum is dissolved into aluminum oxide

on the surface of the product.

 

The best known Types are :

 

Type 1: Chrome Acid Anodising

 

- layer 2-5µm

- layer :1/3 growth 2/3 penetration into the base material

- +336 hours of  saltspray  ASTM B117

- base for lackers or glue

 

 


Type 2: Sulfuric Acid  Anodising / Colour Anodising
 

 

- layer 5-25µ

- layer : 1/3 growth 2/3 penetration into base material

- colourless layer  , layer can be dyed with colours.

- +336 hours of  saltspray  ASTM B117

- electrical insulated layer

 

 

Type 3: Hard Anodising

 

 

- layer  10- 100µ

- layer : 50% growth 50% penetration into base material

- clour of layer depends of aluminum type and placed layer thickness

- +336 hours of  saltspray  ASTM B117

- electrical insulated layer

- hardness +400HV

- wear resistance

- heat resistance 

- adhesion properties are superior

- Hard anodising will reduce fatigue strength considerably
