Anodizing
Aluminum anodizing is a process with a dual function, both anticorrosive and aesthetic, that converts electro-chemically the surface layer of the metal to oxide.
This layer can vary in thickness depending on the application: 5 to 10 microns for indoor applications; 15 to 20 microns for outdoor applications; and 20 to 25 microns for industrial and marine environments where weathering is particularly aggressive.
The process of anodizing aluminum has a dual function: anticorrosive and aesthetic
However, thickness is not the only factor that can influence the properties and performance of anodized aluminum. The concentration of sulfuric acid in the electrolyte, the temperature of the electrolyte, the applied voltage, the current density, and the effectiveness of agitation with air also play a role.
All these parameters are met thanks to the advanced technology and automation of the new plant installed in 2023 .
The aluminum oxidation process carried out by Oxidal Bagno perfectly corresponds to the “QUALANOD” quality parameters provided by European standards, and with approval to the British “DS BRITISH STANDARDS” and the American “AAMA 611-14”.
