COLOR ANODIZED ALUMINUM AUTOMOTIVE COMPONENTS
This paper outlines the process for the production of ANOLOK finishes and compares it with alternative methods of producing colored anodic finishes on aluminum. The properties of ANOLOK finishes are reviewed and results of accelerated and long term corrosion tests discussed. The practicalities of introducing the process into a typical bright anodizing line are considered. The economics of producing ANOLOK finishes along with alternative methods of producing colored finishes are outlined and desirable improvements to the process are identified.
