Determination of density and elastic constants of a thin phosphoric acid-anodized oxide film by acoustic microscopy

Quantitative acoustic measurements have been carried out on phosphoric acid-anodized (PAA) aluminum. This process creates a porous oxide layer which varied from 1 to 22 μm thick in the different specimens used here. The elastic properties of the PAA oxide layer were determined by measurements of the...
