Growth of Etch Pits on Aluminium Cathode Film

알루미늄 음극박의 에치 피트 성장

The wider surface of the aluminum foil, electrochemically very important and it is necessary to increase the surface area. A study has been made of the fabrication condition for etching cube texture of high purity aluminium foil and of electrochemical etching of the aluminium foil. In the present work, it is shown there exists a relation between the influence of the pre-treatment time in the NaOH & HCI solution and $H_2SO_4$ concentration in the conversion solution. Also effect of temperature during AC etching was also studied. Result of the etched aluminum film is shown in the typical SEM images. Its electrochemical characteristics were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. And effects of current density and frequency is also reported. Cyclic voltammogram showed that the protective oxide film was formedon the inner surfaces of etch pit. the frequency influence resistance of oxide film in AC etching.
