FAQs
-
Anodizing is an electrochemical process that converts the metal surface into a durable, corrosion-resistant, anodic oxide finish. It is commonly used on aluminum to enhance its natural oxide layer.
-
Anodizing provides several benefits including increased corrosion resistance, improved wear resistance, better adhesion for paint primers and glues, and enhanced aesthetic qualities with a range of colors.
-
Primarily, aluminum and its alloys are anodized. Other metals such as titanium and magnesium can also be anodized, but aluminum is the most common due to its widespread use and excellent response to the process.
-
There are several types of anodizing processes, including:
Type I (Chromic Acid Anodizing): Produces a thin layer and is suitable for parts with tight tolerances.
Type II (Sulfuric Acid Anodizing): The most common type, suitable for a wide range of applications.
Type III (Hard Anodizing): Produces a thicker, harder layer for wear-resistant applications.
