The Characterization of Coatings Formed on As-Cast Al, Al–Si, and Al–Ca Aluminum Substrates by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation
In this study, ceramic coatings were grown on the surface of as-cast aluminum alloys via plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO). The effect of the Si- and Ca-alloying elements in aluminum on the growth process, morphology, composition, mechanical, and corrosion properties of the PEO coatings was invest...
