Abstract

In this study, oxide dissolution treatment was used for the formation of well ordered porous anodic alumina. Porous anodic alumina was formed on mechanically polished high purity aluminium by anodizing at 50 V in 0.3 M oxalic acid of 15°C for 60 minutes. It is observed that the pore arrangement of as anodized porous anodic alumina was randomly distributed and showed no ordered hexagonal cell structure. As anodized porous anodic alumina were then subjected to oxide dissolution treatment of increasing exposure duration, up to three minutes. Micrographs were captured by using scanning electron microscope. Pore arrangement of porous anodic alumina subjected to oxide dissolution treatment up to two minutes were similar to one another where no ordered periodic structures were formed. .When porous anodic alumina subjected to oxide dissolution treatment for three minutes, a perfect hexagonal pore arrangement was obtained.
