Abstract
The effect of the anodizing process parameters and the influence of β (Mg2Si) phase on the appearance of the anodized AA6063 aluminum alloy have been investigated. It was found that β (Mg2Si) phase was preferentially oxidized at low anodizing voltages and the selective oxidation of β (Mg2Si) phase resulted in the development of a rough alloy/film interface and the incorporation of silicon into the porous anodic film, which led to the discoloration of the anodized alloy. © 2014 The Electrochemical Society.
