Abstract

PURPOSE:To opaquely color an Al base alloy according to the purpose for which it is used, by forming an anodic oxide film on the surface of the Al base alloy contg a specified amount of Cu, roughening the surface of the film under specified conditions and dyeing the film. CONSTITUTION:An Al base alloy material contg. 0.05-4.0% Cu is anodically oxidized in an electrolytic bath contg. oxalic acid to form an anodic oxide film on the surface. The bath voltage is then suddenly dropped to 5-35V and constant-voltage electrolysis is carried out in the same electrolytic bath to uniformly roughen the surface of the anodic oxide film by recovery phenomenon. After the surface of the film is made opaque by the roughening, the film is dyed to opaquely color the Al base alloy material.

Means and Effect for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the method for opaquely coloring an aluminum alloy material according to the present invention is to apply an oxalic acid to an aluminum alloy material made of an aluminum base alloy containing 0.5 to 4.0% of CuO. °1
The process of anodizing by bath dissolution to form an anodized film on the surface, and the subsequent step of increasing the voltage by 5% from the previous voltage value in the same electrolytic bath.
The step of making the anodic oxide film opaque by applying constant voltage electrolytic treatment at a sudden drop of ~35V, and finally the opaque layer formed on the surface! This process consists of a step of dyeing a polarized film.

In the above, the reason why the copper content was limited to 0.05 to 4°0% is because if it is less than 0.05%, the desired color cannot be obtained.
Moreover, if it exceeds 4%, the formed anodic oxide film becomes soft and has poor corrosion resistance. The conditions for the oxidation treatment using oxalic acid electrolytic bath were as usual.

If constant voltage electrolysis is performed after the voltage has suddenly dropped,
The current does not flow immediately; it begins to flow gradually after several seconds to several minutes, and reaches a steady state after a while. This phenomenon is called a recovery phenomenon.

Due to this recovery phenomenon, an anodic oxide film is formed and the aluminum alloy surface underlying the anodic oxide film is uniformly roughened. This diffused reflection on the rough surface makes the anodic oxide film appear opaque. In the above, the voltage was limited to 5 to 35 ■.If it is less than 5V, the current recovery is small and the surface roughening of the underlying surface does not proceed.If it exceeds 35V, an oxide film is rapidly formed and the underlying surface becomes rough. This is because there will be no surface left. A particularly preferred voltage within this voltage range is 20 to 25V. If the electrolytic treatment time is less than 5 minutes, the surface roughening of the base aluminum alloy will not proceed, and if it exceeds 25 minutes, the rough surface will tend to disappear, so the treatment time is preferably 5 to 25 minutes, particularly 10 to 20 minutes. .
