Note 1 to entry: It is usually applied in hot demineralized water bath with or without additives at different temperatures. Sealing improves the corrosion resistan

28、ce performance of the anodic film. 4 General principles of the process 4.1 Purpose of the process The anodizing is an electrochemical process voltage controlled allowing transforming the aluminium (and its alloys) surface in a nanoporous and amorphous oxide layer made of a structure close to alumina

29、. The aim of this treatment is to ensure a protection against the corrosion, and/or to be used as an adhesion base before bonding or before painting. Anodizing is generally sealed for corrosion protection application (with or without painting or bonding) and can remain unsealed when the part is bond

30、ed or painted. This specification is applicable on aluminium and aluminium alloys generally on single parts. Hard anodizing and plasma electrolytic anodizing (micro-arc oxidation) dedicated to wear protection are not covered by this specification. 4.2 Applicability 4.2.1 Type A: unsealed anodizing I

31、t shall be used either as surface preparation before the application of painting/bonding or any other finishing. prEN 4827:2018 (E) 6 4.2.2 Type B: sealed anodizing It is intended for corrosion protection. It shall be with or without dyeing and used with or without additional painting. Table 1 Diffe

Anodizing shall not be applied: x in electric conductivity zones/areas; x for tubes, pipes and open holes with a length to diameter ratio higher than 10:1 (unless using specific cathode); x for trapped holes with a l

35、ength to a diameter ratio greater than 5:1; x for parts or assemblies (e.g. spot-welded and riveted), which can permanently entrap treatment solutions; x for components which can permanently entrap treatment solutions, except components that can be adequately masked. NOTE The formation of oxide laye
