Popis: Rolling and perpendicular to rolling surfaces of AlCu6Si aluminum sheet have been anodized at 27 ± 1°C in 20 wt % sulfuric acid containing an additive of white sugar powder with and without permanent weak magnetic field. After one hour of anodizing, some hillocks-shaped micropores are developed and craters are formed in the oxide layers. The micropores obtained in rolling faces are often smaller than those obtained on other faces. Sulfuric anodizing at 21 V causes the formation of combined micropore-nanopore structures in rolling surface. It demonstrated that sugar additive increases the density of micropores in spherical shape in rolling surface and the increasing of sugar concentration changes the pores to hillocks form. In addition, the application of weak magnetic field induces homogeneous repartition of micropores.
