Abstract
This project seeks to obtain compact aluminum oxide layers with a hardness similar to corundum (2300 Hv), through anodic plasma oxidation, in water, of aluminum, other reactive metals, and their alloys. Both the process and the layers obtained bear little resemblance to the traditional process of hard oxidation (maximum 700 Hv 0.5 N). The proposers intend to develop the process and optimi…
