Registration is now open for the Aluminum Anodizers Council’s 35th Annual Anodizing Conference and Exposition that will take place on October 6-8 at the Hyatt Regency Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio.
In the earlier stages of the recovery effort, much of the focus centered around emergency response, demolition, insurance coordination, and stabilizing operations after the fire.
As anodized aluminum components are increasingly deployed in high-power optical and precision industrial systems operating in non-vacuum environments, their outgassing behavior has emerged as a critical material reliability concern.
The Aluminum Anodizers Council is bringing its regional education model to the Mountain West this summer with the AAC Regional Forum in Layton, Utah.
Anodizing professionals seeking deeper process understanding and improved operational consistency will have the opportunity to participate in a focused, in-person technical workshop when AluConsult hosts its Anodizing Masterclass – On-Site in Southern California in May.
The Aluminum Anodizers Council says the 35th Annual Anodizing Conference & Exposition will take place on October 6 - 8 at the Hyatt Regency Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio.
A metal finishing shop owner we worked with had been getting several emails a week from people interested in acquiring their business.
Colorado environmental officials are about to adopt one of the most comprehensive state-level regulatory frameworks in the U.S. for chromium electroplating and anodizing operations.
Ti and Ti alloys are employed in demanding industries such as aerospace, automotive, biomedical, aeronautic, structural, naval, and chemical, thanks to their resistance to corrosion due to the formation of the TiO2 film on the surface.
The purpose of this paper is to examine how recycling-driven changes in aluminium alloy chemistry, together with alkaline etching bath composition and additive control, influence surface quality and preferential grain etching during anodizing.
The characteristics of aluminum alloys make them the most extensively used material in the aerospace sector.
The electrochemical anodization of stainless steels enables the fabrication of nanostructured oxide layers with high corrosion resistance and tunable functionality.
Nanopores (NPs) grown by anodizing can be partially hidden beneath a relatively compact surface oxide layer, which limits the volumetric surface area of these nanostructures.
This month’s article is a deeper dive into last month’s article about preparation. In fact, preparation and training are kissing cousins. Training helps you prepare effectively.
A 6 VDC tank-voltage difference was observed when comparing the steady-current-at-steady-voltage behavior in two anodizing processes under identical conditions.
The anodization of aluminum is widely used to form an anodic film that endows aluminum with various surface properties beneficial for practical applications.
When we first shared “Rebuilding After the Flames” earlier this year, the story centered on the aftermath—the smoke, the shock, and the immediate scramble after a catastrophic fire inside a plating facility.
