There is. In addition, a method of forming a naturally colored film by electrolysis using an electrolytic bath containing sulfosalicylic acid, etc. in sulfuric acid has been adopted, but in either case, only a shallow area of the upper layer of the alumite film is colored, and there is no risk of wear and discoloration. However, since the deeper part remains porous, the durability is not necessarily sufficient.

5V, and the temperature of the electrolyte bath is 5 to 20°C, preferably 1
The temperature shall be 0 to 15°C. The decrease in silver ion concentration as the process progresses is compensated for by supplementing with silver sulfate. If the voltage is less than 10V, the processing efficiency will be poor, and if it is more than 30V, the metal will be deposited rapidly, and the porous layer of alumite will not be sufficiently impregnated, resulting in uneven color and peeling. . Similarly, if the temperature of the electrolytic bath solution is 5 to 10°C or lower, processing efficiency is poor, and if it is 15 to 20°C or higher, color unevenness tends to occur. Boric acid is added mainly to adjust the conductivity of the electrolytic bath solution.

るものである。According to the present invention, the aluminum member 3 to be treated is held in the electrolyte bath 5 by the aluminum jig 6, and electricity is applied through the jig 6. Even if a part of the metal ions dissolve into the bath liquid and electrodeposit on the aluminum member 3, there is no problem because the object to be processed itself is aluminum.Furthermore, metal ions in the bath liquid are preferentially applied only to the jig. Since there is no possibility of coloring, the desired coloring treatment using the silver salt in the electrolytic bath solution can be carried out efficiently.

よっても変化させることができる。As the metal salt used in the electrolytic bath solution 5, in addition to the silver salts mentioned above, other metal salts such as copper salts and iron salts can be used, and in some cases, gold salts can also be used. In either case, it is preferable to have the same electrolytic bath composition as above, containing around 15 g/liter of metal salt. In the case of silver salt, a golden coating is formed as described above, and in the case of copper salt, a brown or bronze coating is formed. In particular, when silver salt is used, it has many advantages such as a low coefficient of friction on the surface of the product, a beautiful golden color, and high wear resistance, so it can be used most preferably. The color of the film can be changed not only by the type of metal salt used, but also by its thickness, that is, the thickness of the initial alumite layer, the secondary electrolysis time, etc.

It is combined with aluminum oxide to form a strong and dense composite film, which improves weather resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, abrasion resistance, etc., and prevents some of the aluminum jig from dissolving into the bath liquid. Even if the object to be treated is electrodeposited, there is no problem because the object itself is made of aluminum.Furthermore, metal ions in the bath solution are not preferentially electrodeposited only on the jig, so electrolytic The desired coloring process can be carried out efficiently depending on the type of metal in the bath liquid and the depth of its penetration, the surface friction coefficient is reduced, and the color changes less over time, which was previously impossible due to the peeling of the coating. A method of surface treatment of aluminum or its alloys is provided which has many advantages, such as machining being possible and, furthermore, no toxic substances such as cyanide having to be used for treatment.
