Anodizing of aluminium and its alloys - Estimation of loss of absorptive power of anodic oxidation coatings after sealing - Dye-spot test with prior acid treatment

ISO 2143 specifies a method of estimating the loss of absorptive power of anodic oxidation coatings that have undergone a sealing treatment, by dye absorption after acid pretreatment.The method is suitable for use as a production control method and can be applicable to anodic oxidation coatings which may be subjected to weathering or aggressive environments, or where resistance to staining is important.The method is not applicable to those coatings thata) are formed on alloys containing more than 2 % copper or 4 % silicon,b) are sealed by the dichromate process,c) have been given supplementary processing, e.g. oiling, waxing or lacquering,d) are coloured in deep shades, ande) are less than 3 μm thickness.The method is less appropriate where nickel or cobalt salts, or organic additives, have been added to baths used for hydrothermal sealing.

Anodizing of aluminium and its alloys - Estimation of loss of absorptive power of anodic oxidation coatings after sealing - Dye-spot test with prior acid treatment

ISO 2143 specifies a method of estimating the loss of absorptive power of anodic oxidation coatings that have undergone a sealing treatment, by dye absorption after acid pretreatment.

The method is suitable for use as a production control method and can be applicable to anodic oxidation coatings which may be subjected to weathering or aggressive environments, or where resistance to staining is important.

The method is not applicable to those coatings that

a) are formed on alloys containing more than 2 % copper or 4 % silicon,

b) are sealed by the dichromate process,

c) have been given supplementary processing, e.g. oiling, waxing or lacquering,

d) are coloured in deep shades, and

e) are less than 3 μm thickness.

The method is less appropriate where nickel or cobalt salts, or organic additives, have been added to baths used for hydrothermal sealing.

Le présent document spécifie une méthode permettant d'apprécier la perte du pouvoir absorbant des couches anodiques ayant subi un traitement de colmatage, par un essai de coloration après une action acide préalable. La méthode convient au contrôle de production et s'applique aux couches anodiques qui peuvent être soumises aux intempéries ou à des milieux agressifs, ou lorsque la résistance aux taches est importante. Elle n'est pas applicable : - aux couches qui sont formées sur les alliages contenant plus de 2 % de cuivre ou 4 de silicium ; - sont colmatées dans des solutions contenant du dichromate ; - ont subi un traitement supplémentaire; par exemple huile, cire ou laque ; - sont colorées de couleurs foncées ; - ont une épaisseur inférieure à 3 mm. La méthode est moins appropriée lorsque des sels de nickel ou de cobalt ou des additifs organiques ont été ajoutés au bain de colmatage.
