Description
Summary:Anodic oxidation is a surface modification method which combines electric field driven metal and oxygen ion diffusion for formation of oxide layer on the anode surface. This study aimed to investigate the effect of electrolyte concentration on titanium. Specifically, the titanium foil was anodised in mixture of P-glycerophosphate disodium salt pentahydrate (P-GP) and calcium acetate monohydrate (CA) with different concentration (0.02 M + 0.2 M and 0.04 M + 0.4 M), anodising time (1, 3, 5 and lO.,min), applied voltage (150, 200, 250, 300 and 350 V) and current density (10 and 20 m~.cm-~) at room temperature. Surface oxide properties of anodised titanium were characterised by using glancing angle X-ray difiaction (GAXRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), focused ion beam (FIB) milling and digital camera. This study indicated the porosity and crystallinity of the oxide layer depended strongly on the electrolyte concentration
