Abstract (AI)
Plasma electrolytic oxidation can harden the surface of aluminium to the extent that it enables steel replacement in many applications. On magnesium, the technology offers a chromium-free corrosion protection superior to that offered by hexavalent chromium. Finally, on titanium, the process offers wear protection, an anti-galling surface, and a bio-compatible surface. In all cases, the process offers coating structures and compositions which cannot be achieved by any other techniques.
Key Findings
1
For magnesium alloys, plasma electrolytic oxidation provides chromium-free corrosion protection superior to hexavalent chromium treatments.
2
On titanium alloys, the process delivers wear protection, anti-galling properties, and biocompatible surfaces.
3
Plasma electrolytic oxidation produces coating structures and compositions unattainable through other techniques.
4
Plasma electrolytic oxidation substantially hardens aluminium surfaces, enabling aluminium to replace steel in many applications.
