In the present investigation, the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) process was employed to form aluminum oxide coating layers to enhance corrosion resistance properties of high-strength aluminum alloys. The formed protective coating layers were examined by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and characterized by several electrochemical techniques, including open circuit potential (OCP), linear potentiodynamic polarization (LP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results were reported in comparison with the bare 6061-O aluminum alloy to determine the corrosion performance of the coated 6061-O alloy. The PEO-treated aluminum alloy showed substantially higher corrosion resistance in comparison with the untreated substrate material. A relationship was found between the coating formation stage, process parameters and the thickness of the oxide-formed layers, which has a measurable influence on enhancing corrosion resistance properties. This study demonstrates promising results of utilizing PEO process to enhance corrosion resistance properties of high-strength aluminum alloys and could be recommended as a method used in industrial applications.

High strength aluminum alloys Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-(0.1) Ni produced by semi-direct chill casting process were homogenized at different conditions then conducted heat treatment process which comprised pre-aging at 120°C for 24 h, retrogression at 180°C for 30 min, and then re-aging at 120°C for 24 h. Microstructural studies showed that add Ni (0.1 wt %) to the alloy will be forming Ni-rich phases such as AlCuNi, AlNi, AlNiFe and AlMgNi which provide a dispersive strengthening affected in the solid-solution and the subsequent heat treatments. The results showed that by this three-step process of heat treatments, the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-(0.1) Ni were substantially improved. The highest attain for the ultimate tensile strength and Vickers hardness for the alloy sample after applied the retrogression and reaging process is about 545 MPa and 237 HV respectively.

A new surface treatment technology for the aluminum alloys that exhibits not only high corrosion and weather resistance but also good mirror luster has been developed. By performing electrolytic permeation, the improved corrosion resistance and weather resistance while maintaining a high mirror luster was achieved for an aluminum alloy A2014-T6. The high strength aluminum alloys featuring high corrosion and weather resistance have been available for industrial products. Then the claim number of the products by A2014 T6 aluminum alloy has been reduced sharply to almost zero level in comparison with a past. A few applications and the development of the processing in industrial scale in A2014 T6 aluminum alloy will be presented.

Abstract High strength aluminum alloys have a face-centered cubic structure and it is not easy to form hydrides due to the extremely low solubility of hydrogen. Therefore, it is very difficult to test and characterize hydrogen in the high-strength aluminum alloys. In this work, the penetration of hydrogen and the distribution of hydrogen near the crack tip in the highstrength aluminum alloy were analyzed by time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS). Meanwhile, the test method of trace H in highstrength aluminum alloy was investigated by using TOF-SIMS technology.
