Abstrakt: Black and gray microarc oxidation coatings have been obtained on 2A70 Aluminum alloy in phosphate electrolyte with and without titania sol, respectively. The growth process of the microarc oxidation coating in the electrolyte with titania sol was investigated. The coating was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) and X-ray. The coating thickness was measured by eddy current thickness meter. The results show that the titania sol increase the growth rate of microarc oxidation coating. In both cases the composition of coatings contain Al and O, and are mainly composed of γ-Al2O3 and AlPO4. Compared with the gray coating, large amount of Ti is found on the surface of black coating. The titania sol added in the electrolyte results in Ti in the coating, in the form of TiO and Al2TiO5.
