Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation Coatings of a 6061 Al Alloy in an Electrolyte with the Addition of K<sub>2</sub>ZrF<sub>6</sub>

In this study, white thermal control coatings were produced on a 6061 Al alloy using plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO). The coatings were mainly formed by incorporating K<sub>2</sub>ZrF<sub>6</sub>. The phase composition, microstructure, thickness, and roughness of the coat...
