Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the production of an ordered porous structure from an aluminium substrate.
  • a porous structure is called “ordered” if it has pores in the form of rectilinear channels of the same transverse cross-section (shape and dimensions) which are parallel and adjacent in a radial plane and uniformly distributed in the radial plane.
  • the aluminium piece and the anodic structures resulting from anodization of the said aluminium piece are orientated according to their two opposite faces, a first face, the so-called outer face, in contact with the electrolyte solution and a second face, the so-called substrate face, which is not in contact with the electrolytic solution.
  • alumina is understood as meaning the general term covering oxidized forms of aluminium, that is to say aluminium oxides, aluminium hydroxides and also aluminium oxyhydroxides.
  • porous structures based on the chemical element aluminium, the surface of which extends over several ⁇ m 2 .
  • These porous structures also called porous anodic films, can be used as a support or as a matrix for original applications, such as nanofiltration, or also the realization of functional elements of nanometre dimension, such as nanocontacts, nanofilaments and nanotubes.
  • the improvement in the technical performances of these materials, the ultrastructures of which are of meso- or nanometre dimension, is attributed directly to technological advances allowing the realization of porous anodic films of large dimension and controlled thickness.
  • “Self-ordering of cell configuration of anodic porous alumina with large-size pores in phosphoric acid solution” describes a method for obtaining a porous structure comprising several treatments, that is to say an anodization treatment for a duration varying from 0.5 h to 16 h on a non-pretexturized aluminium substrate in a phosphoric acid solution at a concentration of 0.3 mol/l under a voltage of 195 V, a chemical dissolution treatment of the residual aluminium substrate by means of a saturated HgCl 2 solution, a chemical dissolution treatment of the barrier layer, also called compact layer, by means of a phosphoric acid solution of 10% strength by weight, and finally a chemical treatment for enlarging the diameter of the pores of the porous structure by means of a phosphoric acid solution.
  • This document thus describes a reference method for the production of a porous structure based on aluminium by means of several successive treatments, all of which are of a chemical or electrochemical nature.
  • This document demonstrates the state of the surface of the substrate face of the porous structure after removal of the residual substrate and of the barrier layer. It does not describe the state of the porous structure within its thickness, in particular at the outer face.
  • Double anodization Another known method allowing a plurality of concavities of the same shape and regularly distributed to be obtained on the surface of the aluminium or aluminium alloy substrate is called “double anodization”.
  • a first anodization stage allows the formation of a plurality of concavities at the interface of the initially smooth aluminium substrate and the porous structure resulting from this anodization.
  • Complete dissolution, by a chemical route, of the porous structure resulting from the anodization then reveals the plurality of underlying concavities.
  • This method of “double anodization” takes a long time to carry out because of the duplication of the anodization stage.
  • This method moreover necessitates a stage of chemical dissolution of the porous structure resulting from the first anodization, which is difficult to carry out and consequently is not very, if at all, compatible with use on an industrial scale.
  • This method furthermore necessitates the use of toxic chemical products during the dissolution stage, such as derivatives of chromium, in particular of chromium(VI).
  • the thickness of the porous structure produced at the end of the initial anodization treatment on the aluminium substrate and then dissolved by the chemical treatment is not upgraded.
  • EP 1715085 thus proposes a method in which the chemical dissolution treatment is replaced by an electrochemical treatment, leading to separation of the residual aluminium substrate and the entirety of the structure resulting from the first anodization.
  • this method takes a long time to carry out, and is relatively complex, expensive and not very compatible with use on an industrial scale.
  • the object of the invention is to lessen the effect of these disadvantages by proposing a production method for an ordered porous structure by anodization of a smooth aluminium or aluminium alloy substrate which avoids resorting to a double anodization and which no longer necessitates carrying out a prior stage of mechanical nanoindentation of the aluminium or aluminium alloy substrate.
  • the object of the invention more particularly is to propose a method for the production of an ordered porous structure by anodization which is simple, rapid, inexpensive and environment-friendly, and which is compatible with use on an industrial scale.
  • the object of the invention more particularly is to propose a method allowing an ordered porous structure to be obtained which is of high quality and homogeneous throughout its entire thickness and in which the shape, the diameter of the pores and the organization of the pores are perfectly controlled.
  • the object of the invention more particularly is to propose a method allowing an ordered porous structure to be obtained, which can have a high thickness—in particular greater than 50 ⁇ m.
  • the object of the invention is also to propose a method for the production of an ordered porous structure which does not necessitate the use of toxic chemical compounds, such as derivatives of chromium, in particular of chromium(VI).
  • the invention thus relates to a method for the production of a porous structure in which an outer surface layer comprising an ordered porous structure is produced by anodization of an aluminium substrate, characterized in that:

  • the porous structure also has, underlying this imperfectly ordered porous structure, a perfectly ordered porous structure, that is to say having pores in the form of rectilinear channels of the same transverse cross-section (shape and dimensions) which are parallel and adjacent in a radial plane and uniformly distributed in the radial plane.
  • an anodization treatment is carried out from a substrate formed by an aluminium alloy of series 1XXX, for example aluminium alloy 1050A, or also refined aluminium, in particular chosen from the group formed by aluminium 4N and aluminium 5N.
  • the outer surface layer comprising at least a thickness of porous structure is obtained after a duration of the anodization which depends on the speed of growth of the said outer surface layer.
  • the speed of growth of the outer surface layer depends here on the operating conditions chosen for realizing the physical properties of the porous structure.
  • the method according to the invention thus allows a porous structure having a non-zero thickness of an ordered porous structure to be realized rapidly and easily in a single anodization and without necessitating either a subsequent chemical treatment of selective dissolution or an electrochemical separation.
  • This ordered porous structure has an open porosity at least on one of its faces, the so-called outer face, and a controlled thickness of ordered porous structure on the micrometre scale.
  • the outer surface layer from being realized such that it comprises a plurality of superimposed thicknesses of ordered porous structures.
  • These various thicknesses are obtained in particular by an anodization treatment comprising a plurality of successive anodization stages, none of the said anodization treatment stages being followed by a treatment by selective chemical dissolution or electrochemical separation of a part of the thickness of the layer formed by anodization.
  • the various anodization treatment stages are carried out under anodization conditions in which at least one of the anodization parameters chosen from the group formed by the anodization voltage, the temperature of the anodization solution, the chemical composition of the anodization solution and the anodization current density is modified between two successive anodization stages.
  • any known method for removal of material by mechanical machining can be used to carry out the removal of a part of the thickness of the said layer formed by anodization, this part of the thickness extending from the outer surface of the said layer, while maintaining at least a non-zero thickness of ordered porous structure and in a manner such that this ordered porous structure forms the free outer surface of the residual layer.
  • mechanical machining is understood as meaning any method suitable for superficial removal of particles of material.
  • these particle of material removed by mechanical machining are particles in the solid state.

  • Such a mechanical machining can be carried out in a single stage, or on the other hand by a plurality of successive stages.
  • Such a mechanical machining can also be carried out with a single mechanical machining technique used during the various machining stages, or on the other hand by using a plurality of mechanical machining techniques during successive mechanical machining stages.
  • Such a mechanical machining according to the invention can be carried out in particular by ionic polishing using an ion flux, in particular a precision ion polishing system (PIPS), or also using the wide and high-energy primary beam of a secondary ion mass spectrometer (SIMS).

  • the first treatment 27 comprises partial chemical dissolution of the dividing walls 9 and allows the diameter of the pores 8 to be increased up to a value which depends on the duration of the reaction and on the concentration by weight of the acid used.
  • This first treatment 27 allows perfect control not only of the diameter but also of the geometry of the transverse cross-section of the pores 8 , from a circular section up to a hexagonal section.

  • an amalgam of a metal which is liquid at ambient temperature, in particular gallium or mercury, with the aluminium of the residual aluminium layer 4 is realized. Extraction of the amalgam allows the aluminium of the support to be removed in this way.
