Abstract:Aluminum (Al) alloys are lightweight and machinable and have been widely used in industrial applications, particularly the formation of complex mechanical parts. However, the 5052 Al alloy frequently encounters problems like corrosion and wear during its service life, significantly impacting the equipment’s longevity. This study investigated the effects of pulse voltage (320 to 400 V) and frequency (50 to 200 Hz) on the growth and surface morphology of 5052 Al alloy films formed through micro-arc oxidation (MA… Show more
