Abstract
The behavior of anodic porous alumina film formed on an aluminum surface by anodizing in chromic acid solutions was optimized using Box–Wilson experimental design. The film thickness was correlated as a function of temperature, acid concentration, applied voltage, and time. A mathematical model was suggested and optimized. Results of coating thickness indicate that both temperature and time play an important role in the anodizing process. The interaction effect of variables on the film thickness is less pronounced compared with the effect of the main variables. Optimum film thickness obtained during the anodizing process was 10.43 µm at the optimum value of temperature (45 °C) and time (68 min). The polarization measurement of anodized aluminum ASA 6061 in chromic acid shows a high corrosion resistance in the presence of coating. The results confirmed by using surface morphology investigations.
