8、anodizing of aluminium alloys used in aerospace construction. It shall be applicable whenever referenced. 2 Purpose of process To improve : - the resistance to abrasive and erosive wear, - the electrical insulation, - the thermal insulation. To use the dimensional increase produced by the process fo

9、r repair of parts out of tolerance on machining or worn in service (special case). 3 Influence and limitations of process use The anodizing produces an increase : - of the dimensions by about 50 % of the coating thickness, - of the surface roughness (factor of 1,3 to 3,0, if expressed in Ra). Anodiz

10、ing results in a reduction of the fatigue strength which may reach 60 %. Shot peening before anodizing reduces the extent of this reduction. The best results as regards the properties of the anodized layer are obtained on machined surfaces ; no grinding before anodizing. Round off sharp comers. Not

11、recommended for use on parts or items where there is a risk of retention of corrosive substances. Avoid anodizing both faces on areas with a thickness I; 2 mm. The thickness of the anodized layer is in general : - 30 prn to 120 prn for alloys of category 1, - 30 pm to 60 pm for alloys of categoiy 2.

12、 Restrict thickness to 25 pm on the splines and threads. 4 References IS0 1463 Metallic and oxide coatings - Measurement of coating thickness - Microscopical method IS0 2106 .

Information concerning the individual operations is given below : 9.1 Masking may be carried out using : Masking and mounting of the parts - special varnishes or waxes easily removable by solvents, - plugs in suitable material, - chromic acid anodizing (EN

24、 2101) or sulphunc acid anodizing (EN 2284), sealed and completed with wax or varnish. Generally, the anodizing is camed out over the whole surface of the part and the area intended for hard anodizing is machined to remove the masking anodic coating.

The pickling shall remove the nat

As a general rule, the pickling is done in a sulphunc-chromic bath according to EN 2334. In exceptional cases, for certain alloys in category 2, alkaline pickling may be used (see EN 210
