Title:
Anodic Treatment of Aluminum Alloys
Sulfuric Acid Process, Dyd Coating
Number:
AMS 2472
Revision:
E
Scope:
This specification establishes the engineering requirements for producing dyed anodic coatings on aluminum alloys and properties of such coatings. This process has been used typically to increase corrosion resistance and to produce colored surfaces on aluminum alloy parts. but usage is not limited to such applications. AMS2470 or AMS 2471 should be specified for coatings to be used as a base for paint or other organic finishes. This process is not suitable for parts which contain joins or recesses in which the anodizing solution may be retained.
