This work is concerned with the investigation of the capability of alumina coatings, deposited over aluminum alloy by dip coating methods to improve mechanical properties. Alumina coatings were deposited using oxime-modified aluminum (III) isopropoxide as a sol-gel precursor. The Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDX) images of the coated samples suggest deposition of uniform and crack free alumina coatings. The mechanical property of the bare, and dip coated aluminum alloy were investigated by the slow strain rate test in 3.5% of NaCl solution. The coated sample indicate higher ultimate tensile strength, it’s reflect the protective behavior of coating.
