Titanium has a tendency to gall when in rubbing contact with itself and other surfaces. A number of techniques have been developed to engineer the titanium surface and overcome this problem: As a ...

You can give your forks and other aluminum parts an outrageous look by anodizing the parts.Photography by Dean Groover An electroplating process, anodizing bonds aluminum oxide to aluminum parts.

Among the metal material industry, the surface treatment industry improves the product quality of protective surfaces by using electrical, physical, and chemical treatment methods on two surface ...

We have employed anodic aluminum oxide as a template to prepare ultrathin, transparent and conducting Al films with a unique nanomesh structure for transparent conductive electrodes. The anodic ...

Anodizing aluminium, the process of electrolytic build up of the metal’s the oxide layer in the presence of dyes to create colored effects, is such a well-established process that we probably all have ...

In a world where quality and durability are paramount, selecting the right finish for an aluminium surface is more than a mere aesthetic choice. This article aims to clear the fog by providing a ...

Tecan has developed an environmentally friendly process for the anodising of titanium parts - a process believed to be unique in the UK. At its dedicated £1m in-house electro-plating facility, ...

The beautiful anodized aluminum finish on many Apple products keeps them from corrosion, provides a hard and (mostly) scratch resistant surface, and even — in the case of the iPod nano and shuffle — a ...
