Description

    BACKGROUND
  • 1. Technical Field
  • The present disclosure relates to processes for surface treating aluminum and aluminum alloy articles.
  • 2. Description of Related Art
  • Due to having many good properties such as light weight and quick heat dissipation, aluminum and aluminum alloy are widely used in making components (such as housings) of electronic devices. Aluminum and aluminum alloy are usually anodized to form an oxide coating thereon to acquire a decorative and wear resistant surface. When forming a multi-colored oxide coating, a typical anodizing and coloring process are repeatedly implemented. After one anodizing process, the subsequently colored area is exposed while the other area is shielded. However, the cost for providing the shielding is high. Moreover, it is difficult to achieve a precise and three-dimensional decorative pattern by this shielding.
  • Therefore, there is room for improvement within the art.
    • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS
  • An exemplary process for surface treating aluminum and aluminum alloy articles may include at least the following steps.
  • In a first step, an aluminum or aluminum alloy substrate is provided. The substrate includes an internal surface and an external surface.
  • In a second step, a first surface appearance of the external surface is formed by a first machining process. For example, the external surface may be sandblasted to achieve a dull surface appearance.
  • In a third step, the substrate is processed in a first anodizing process. The first anodizing process is carried out by dipping the substrate in an electrolytic bath containing sulfuric acid at a temperature of about 19-21° C., using a direct current in an approximate range from about 10 to 12 volts for about 45 to 55 minutes. The mass concentration of the sulfuric acid can be about 180 to 220 g/L (gram per liter), and is selected to be about 190-210 g/L in this embodiment. Therefore, a first oxide coating is formed on the internal and external surfaces of the substrate.
  • In a fourth step, the substrate is colored in a first dyeing process. Two alternative methods, i.e., chemical staining and adsorption staining may be used. Adsorption staining is implemented in this embodiment to color the first oxide coating. The first oxide coating presents a first color by this process.
  • In a fifth step, the colored substrate is processed in a sealing process to improve anti-contamination and anti-corrosion qualities of the first oxide coating.
  • In a sixth step, some portion or all of the first oxide coating on the internal surface of the substrate can be removed by a laser carving process to make the substrate electrically conductive.
  • In a seventh step, the external surface of the substrate is processed in a second machining process. By the second machining process, a portion or portions of the first oxide coating on the external surface is removed. The area of the external surface excluding the first oxide coating has a second surface appearance different from the first surface appearance. The second surface appearance can be textured differently than the first surface, such as a texture of line strips.
  • In an eighth step, the substrate is processed in a second anodizing process. The second anodizing process can be carried out by immersing the substrate into an electrolytic bath containing sulfuric acid at a temperature of about 19-21° C., using a direct current in an approximate range from about 9.5 to 10.5 volts for about 28 to 32 minutes. The mass concentration of the sulfuric acid can be about 180 to 220 g/L (gram per liter). A second oxide coating is formed on the area of the external surface excluding the first oxide coating.
  • In a ninth step, the substrate is colored in a second dyeing process. Two alternative methods, chemical staining and adsorption staining may be used. Adsorption staining is selected to color a second color on the second oxide coating.
  • In a tenth step, the colored substrate is processed in a sealing process to enhance anti-contamination and anti-corrosion qualities of the second oxide coating.
  • As the substrate is processed by two different machining and two different dyeing steps, the substrate can achieve two different anodized surface appearances with different colors.
  • It should be understood that the substrate can be pre-treated before the first anodizing process. The pre-treatment includes degreasing the substrate to remove oil stains on the substrate surface, immerging in a chemical polishing solution typically containing phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid, and then immerging in a solution containing about 20-40% (mass percent) nitric acid to remove the black coating on the substrate surface formed in the chemically polishing procedure.
  • It should be understood that the steps described in [0010] through [0014] can be repeated to obtain an aluminum or aluminum alloy article, which has an anodized surface with more than two different colors and more than two different surface appearances.
  • It should be understood that the steps described in [0010] can be omitted by painting ink e.g., to cover some portion or all of the internal surface of the substrate before the first anodizing process.
  • It should be understood, however, that even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present embodiments have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structures and functions of the embodiments, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the disclosure to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
