Three "special" oxides – aluminum oxide, chromium oxide and silicon dioxide – can actually work to protect metal from further corrosion. So the MIT team set out to explore why this was the case.

Background Pure aluminum (Al) is generally considered corrosion-resistant due to the protective nature of the spontaneously forming aluminum oxide passive film. This film acts as a wide bandgap ...

Anodizing is crucial in improving the functional and cosmetic performance of aluminum CNC machining components especially in such industries as the aerospace industry, automotive industry and ...

It can essentially convert the metal surface, such as aluminum, into a more durable and corrosion-resistant state with an anodic oxide finish. The two main methods can consist of mild and hard ...
