Estudio de la degradación de la capa de sellado en perfiles de aluminio anodizado

Abstract

AbstractAnodizing of aluminium is a process for the reinforcement of the natural formation in contact with the atmosphere of a stable and protective aluminium oxide layer. Through this process it is possible to obtain anodic films with a porous external layer that allows be colored. The next step is sealing, in which a gelatinous substance is formed, mainly composed by bohemite. This substance blocks the pores and the surface aspect conservation and corrosion resistance are improved. In this work the causes of degradation of sealing layer in anodized aluminium pieces are studied by means of SEM and EDS. This degradation is independent of the atmosphere in which the material is exposed. It is concluded that photodegradation of an organic additive added in excess in sealing operation is the main cause.

ResumenEl anodizado del aluminio es simplemente el refuerzo de un procesonatural y espontáneo: la formación de una capa de alúmina estable yprotectora mediante la cual se pueden obtener películas con una subcapa exterior porosa que acepta coloración. Luego la operación de sellado permite la formación de una sustancia gelatinosa compuesta principalmente de bohemita, que obstruye los poros y mejora la conservación del aspecto superficial y la resistencia a la corrosión. Utilizando SEM y EDS, en este trabajo se estudiaron las causas de la degradación de la capa de sellado de algunas piezas de aluminio anodizado, independientemente del medio en donde está expuesto el material, y se encontró su origen en la fotodegradación de un aditivo orgánico añadido en exceso durante la operación de sellado.
