Definitions
- the present invention relates to treating aluminum alloy parts, in particular parts for use in making aviation components, and more specifically the invention relates to a method of anodizing a part made of aluminum alloy.
- Such anodization method is relatively effective in applying a coating of aluminum oxide on an aluminum alloy with a solution of sulfuric acid and boric acid.
- the resulting anodized coating is at least comparable, and in terms of resistance to corrosion, equivalent to the anodized and sealed coatings made in baths containing an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid and chromic acid.
- the superiority of the method of document U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,127 over other prior methods of sulfuric-boric anodization lies in the thinness of the coatings obtained, in particular coatings having a thickness of 1 micrometer ( ⁇ m) to 3 ⁇ m, which is particularly advantageous in the field of aviation.
- compositions specified for implementing such a method are very broad, and that can lead to characteristics being obtained that present a wide range of variation in the resulting layers. Furthermore, it is difficult to control the thickness of the oxide obtained at the end of treatment. It should be observed that in the context of that known method, a voltage is applied to the part which is dipped in the electrolytic bath, which voltage increases linearly from 5 volts (V) to 20 V, with current density over said part remaining close to 100 amps per square meter (A/m 2 ).
- document U.S. Pat. No. 4,554,216 describes an anodizing method using a bath comprising sulfuric acid at a concentration of 166 g/l to 230 g/l.
- the aqueous bath is at low temperature (0° C. to 5° C.), and the part dipped in said bath is subjected to high current density (200 A/m 2 to 300 A/m 2 ).
- the porosity of the resulting coating layer which is known to depend on the chemical composition of the electrolyte, and in particular on its sulfuric acid concentration, is thus always high, thereby giving an effect that is unfavorable on the whole on the characteristics of the resulting layer.
- anodization performed in an acid medium is essentially porous, and that if it is desired to avoid high porosity on treated parts, it is necessary to make use of anodizing techniques in a medium that is more neutral, in order to obtain barrier anodization with a non-porous layer.
- An object of the present invention is to propose an anodizing method that provides better performance, that is essentially related to sulfuric anodic oxidation techniques but that allows better monitoring of the thickness or the weight of the coating, while not obtaining high porosity on the treated parts.
- an aqueous anodizing bath essentially comprising sulfuric acid at a concentration lying in the range 55 g/l to 85 g/l, and excluding the presence of any phosphoric acid or any boric acid;
- aqueous anodizing bath also to contain an acid alcohol having one to three acid functions in order to limit dissolution of the resulting coating layer, for the purpose of having perfectly uniform porosity throughout the thickness of the layer while not losing electrical conductivity in the bath which favors good growth of said layer.
- the first step of the anodizing method of the invention consists-in providing an aqueous anodizing bath essentially comprising sulfuric acid at a concentration lying in the range 55 g/l to 85 g/l, and excluding the presence of any phosphoric acid or boric acid.
- Certain authors prefer the specified concentrations to be given in weight percentages: specifically, the above-mentioned limits given in g/l correspond to concentration values lying in the range 5.36% to 8.2% by weight.
- the sulfuric acid concentration of the bath is preferably lies essentially in the range 57 g/l to 67 g/l, with a highly preferred value being situated in the vicinity of 62 g/l (i.e. slightly more than 6% by weight).
- the second preparatory step of the anodizing method of the invention consists in maintaining the above-mentioned aqueous anodizing bath at a constant temperature which lies essentially in the range 15° C. to 27° C.
- the bath is preferably maintained at a constant temperature close to 22° C.
- the aluminum alloy part for treatment is thus dipped into the aqueous anodizing bath as prepared in this way.
- the voltage applied to the part dipped in the bath may be fixed to a constant value throughout the duration of the anodizing treatment, said constant value then lying in the range ⁇ 5 V to 30 V. Under such circumstances, it is advantageous to select a constant value for the voltage lying in the range 7 V to 20 V.
- relatively low current density is used on the part which is dipped in the electrolytic bath.
- the term “low” means in this case that the current density is substantially less than 100 A/m 2 .
- the part for treatment is maintained in the electrolytic bath until the desired thickness of coating has been obtained, which thickness lies substantially in the range 1 ⁇ m to 3 ⁇ m.
- the acid alcohol used in the bath is preferably tartaric acid (an acid alcohol having two acid functions, of formula C 4 H 6 O 6 ) or citric acid (an acid alcohol having three acid functions, of formula C 6 H 8 O 7 ).
- the concentration of tartaric acid or of citric acid then preferably lies essentially in the range 12 g/l to 17 g/l, with the optimum concentration observed during testing lying in the vicinity of 17 g/l.
- Adding tartaric acid or citric acid to the bath in the context of the present invention makes it possible to obtain dissolution of the alumina layer which is less than that obtained with sulfuric acid on its own, and in addition current density in the bath does not drop off as would be the case with other acids, such as boric acid, because of the action of surface tension.
- Sealing of the coating must perform two functions, namely promoting both adhesion and resistance to corrosion. Sealing is conventionally performed by soaking in hot water at a temperature of not less than 97° C., or in a dilute solution of potassium bichromate. It is preferable to use a solution of deionized water at a temperature lying in the range 85° C. to 98° C., with soaking being performed for a duration which is a function of the thickness of the coating that has been obtained.
- a high performance anodizing method is thus provided which makes it possible simultaneously to monitor the thickness or the weight of the coating and its roughness, and to obtain low porosity at the surface of the treated parts.
