Aluminum Anodizing process

The aluminum part is hung on stripped aluminum or titanium racks ensuring good electrical contact.

Throughout the anodizing process, parts are affixed and the racks are suspended in a series of tanks.

1. Aluminum part is dipped in a hot tank containing a soak cleaning agent to remove all surface dirt.

2. The part is rinsed to avoid contaminating the solution in subsequent tanks.

3. The next tank de-oxidizes the part with an acid solution (chromic, sulfuric, nitric or phosphoric)

removing the thin, non-uniform aluminum oxide surface.

4. Again the part is rinsed to avoid tank contamination.

5. Etching is performed by suspending the part in a tank containing a sodium hydroxide solution.

Etching removes the natural shine of the aluminum and provide a soft, matte, textured appearance.

6. The part is suspended in the anodizing tank, which contains a diluted acid and water mixture that

is capable of permitting electrical current flow. The type of acid, percent solution and temperature are

all critical parameters and dependent on the desired finish and color. The negative leg of the electrical

circuit is connected to the rack of parts and the positive side of the circuit is connected to one or more

"cathodes" that introduce electricity into the tank. Quantity and placement of the cathodes varies with

the size and shape of the part as well as the total square footage of aluminum surface to be treated.

Surfaces closest to the cathode will receive a thicker anodic coating. For normal sulfuric anodizing a

DC power source capable of producing up to 24 volts is used, with the voltage held generally between

18 and 24 volts. The amount of current applied to the anodizing tank will vary depending on the amount

of surface to be treated, as a rule between 12 and 16 amps are required for each square foot of coverage.

The electrolyte solution is agitated during the anodizing process to provide uniform solution temperature.

The anodizing tank process, under normal conditions, takes less than an hour.

7. To add color (dye), the part is dipped in a tank with a diluted, water soluble, organic dye. Each dye

varies in the length of time and temperature for this immersion.

8. The final consideration in the anodizing process is sealing the now dyed outer surface so it doesn't sunlight

bleach or stain. Unsealed, the porous outer surface has a lowered corrosion resistance. For non-dyed coatings,

the anodized aluminum part is put into boiling de-ionized water for 20 to 30 minutes. This converts the unstructured

pores of the aluminum oxide to a more solid crystalline hydrate form. If the anodized parts are dyed, the sealing

process is performed for 3 to 5 minutes in a tank with a nickel acetate solution.

9. Hard anodizing, depending on the process, uses a mixture of sulfuric and oxalic acid. Relatively low

temperatures are used along with a higher current and a much higher voltage. The “gray” oxide layer produced

is typically 2 to 3 mils and is very dense, wear and corrosive resistant.

Why measure?

The anodizing process parameters have a significant influence on the properties of the oxide formed.

If low temperatures and acid concentrations are used, it yields a less porous and harder coating.

Higher temperatures and acid content, along with longer immersion times produces softer, more porous coatings.

Minor changes to the alloy itself or any of these parameter can significantly affect the coating.

Through various process controls and measurement techniques, Anodizers are able to monitor, control and

correct the anodized coating application. One of the most critical quality controls for anodizing is thickness.

Thickness of anodizing can be measured non-destructively using an eddy current gage or by calculating weight

per unit area. The simplicity of the eddy current method is not only more efficient than the calculation method,

but also enable the inspector to verify that adequate anodizing occurs across all surfaces of the part.
