In this study, a plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) process was used to produce oxide coatings on commercially pure aluminium (1100 alloy) at pulsed dc power mode. The effects of parameters (i.e. current density and treatment time) the discharge behaviour during PEO were investigated using optical emission spectroscopy (OES) in visible near ultraviolet (NUV) band (285–800 nm). elements present identified. Stark shifts spectral lines line intensity ratios utilized determine electron...
Digital video imaging of the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) aluminium has been performed, which allowed evaluation both dimensional characteristics individual microdischarges appearing at oxide–electrolyte interface and their collective behaviour throughout process. It shown that microdischarge cross-sectional dimensions vary within range 0.01–1.35 mm2. In course PEO processing, small localized events (<0.03 mm3) always dominate in spatial distribution relative proportion medium-sized...
A comprehensive analysis of experimental data relating to so-called "soft sparking" mode plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) has been undertaken. The transition the soft sparking is accompanied by a number characteristic effects, such as decrease in anodic voltage, acoustic and light emission, increase hysteresis transient current-voltage curves, improved uniformity discharge distribution on surface, disappearance atomic lines, development continuous radiation optical emission spectra. An...
