(Main)Aerospace series - Hexavalent chromium free anodizing of aluminium and aluminium alloys
Aerospace series - Hexavalent chromium free anodizing of aluminium and aluminium alloys
This document specifies the requirements for hexavalent chromium free anodizing of aluminium and aluminium alloys for corrosion protection, bonding and painting.
This document does not apply to hard anodizing and plasma electrolytic anodizing (micro-arc oxidation).
The purpose of this document is to give design, quality and manufacturing requirements. It does not give complete in-house process instructions; these are given in the processor's detailed process instructions.
Luft- und Raumfahrt - Anodisieren von Aluminium und Aluminiumlegierungen ohne hexavalentem Chrom
Série aérospatiale - Anodisation sans chrome hexavalent de l'aluminium et des alliages d'aluminium
Le présent document spécifie les exigences relatives à l’anodisation sans chrome hexavalent de l'aluminium et des alliages d'aluminium pour la protection contre la corrosion, le collage et la peinture.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas à l’anodisation dure ni à l’oxydation par plasma électrolytique (oxydation micro-arc).
L’objet du présent document est d’indiquer les exigences de conception, de qualité et de fabrication. Il ne donne pas de gamme de production complète ; ces informations sont données dans les instructions détaillées de l’applicateur relatives au procédé.
