Abstract

The process of formation of an oxide coating (strengthening and heat-insulating one) on the working surfaces of the piston head (piston bottom and grooves) using the method of micro-arc oxidation (MAO) is discussed. It is noted that during the oxidation of the piston head, the MAO process conditions will have a significant effect on the thickness and porosity of the oxide coating formed. The theoretical dependences of the influence of the electrical parameters of the microarc oxidation process conditions on the thickness and porosity of the oxide coating are presented. It has been found that the thickness of the oxidized layer will be directly proportional to the voltage and composition of the electrolyte, and the porosity is inversely proportional to the voltage and directly proportional to the current strength. It is shown that by varying the parameters of the oxidation conditions (current strength, voltage and process time), oxidized layers of the required thickness and porosity can be obtained.
