Abstract
The corrosion behavior of the anodic oxide film on aluminium 7A04 alloy is investigated in current paper, where the different anodic oxide films are prepared. Morphology observation on different anodic films is carried out by using laser confocal microscopy (LCM) and copper sulfate test. Meanwhile, the electrochemical properties are evaluated through using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The LCM observation shows that the anodic oxide film formed in boric/sulphuric mixed acid is uniform with porous appearance, while the anodic oxide film formed in chromic aid is nonporous one but defective. The copper sulfate test results show that the corrosion regions almost developed from micropores in strong corrosive media. The evaluation of EIS in NaCl solution demonstrates that the corrosion resistance of specimen with anodic oxide film is much better than that without film. Furthermore, the corrosion resistance of anodic film formed in boric/sulphuric mixed acid is better than that formed in chromic acid.
