초록

Al alloys are being used widely for automobile, aerospace and mechanical components because of their high strength ratio to weight. However, still they suffer from abrasion or corrosion owing to insufficient resistances to friction or mechanical impact and chemical attack. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method is one of the promising surface treatment methods for Al alloys which can render better hardness than aluminum anodic oxide (AAO) films prepared by conventional anodizing method in acidic solutions. In this presentation, some basic nature of PEO film formation and growth process on Al alloys will be presented based on the experimental results obtained and discussed in view of dielectric breakdown and reformation and the role of various anions in film breakdown and reformation of PEO films.
