Abstract
Optical properties of nickel black selective surfaces, prepared by a conversion coating process, on zincated aluminium alloy surfaces are studied in relation to the processing parameters. It is possible to obtain nickel black surfaces with solar absorptances ranging from 0.95 to 0.97 and thermal emittances ranging from 0.2 to 0.4. The coatings are stable up to 200°C but show degradation under humid conditions. Surface studies indicate that the optical properties may be explicable by the structure of these nickel films.
