Deposition of Cerium-Based Conversion Coatings on Aluminum Alloy 380

Anti-corrosive Properties of CeO2 Conversion Coatings on Aluminum Alloy 2024 Prepared by Dip Immersion Method

As an alternative to chromate conversion coatings, rare-earth coatings especially cerium, because of the low toxicity, have attracted considerable attention. Using dip immersion method, cerium-based conversion coating was deposited on aluminum 2024. Corrosion resistance was studied in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and surface ...

Gradient DLC-Based Nanocomposite Coatings as a Solution to Improve Tribological Performance of Aluminum Alloy

The low hardness and poor tribological performance of aluminum alloy as moving component greatly restricts their wide applications in automotive fields. In this letter, an attempt to deposit gradient Ti/TiN/Si/(TiC/a-C:H) multi-layer on aluminum alloy is thus effectively performed by a combined arc ion plating and magnetron sputtering process based on the concept of involving coatings with a fu...

EFFECT OF MULTI-STEP ANODIZING METHODS ON THE OPTICAL ABSORPTION OF BLACK COATINGS ON 2024 ALUMINUM ALLOY

 Development of materials with the ideal black body absorption spectrum are of great interest. Such materials could improve the efficiency of solar cells, and passive cooling and heat transfer systems as well as the protective and decorative coatings. Fabricating black anodizing coatings is promising for this purpose because they exhibit low light reflection from the surface. Such coatings can ...
