Abstract

Potentiodynamic polarization,electrochemical noise and SEM were used to study the corrosion behavior of L2 aluminum anodic film in 1 mol/L NaCl solutions.The results showed that anodic oxidization of aluminum increases its corrosion resistance greatly.However metastable pits were also observed when the film was thin or was exposed to the solutions for a long time.These pits with a diameter less than 10μm often occurred around the metallic inclusions in film.
