Write scientific reason.
Anodization method is useful for prevention of the corrosion of the aluminium.
Advertisements
उत्तर
- The process of coating metals such as aluminium and copper with a thin and strong layer of their oxides by electrolysis is called anodizing process.
- When aluminium is anodized, a thin layer of aluminium oxide is formed all over the surface. This restricts the contact of aluminium metal with oxygen and water and prevents corrosion of aluminium.
Hence, anodization method is useful for prevention of the corrosion of the aluminium.

| A process of forming a thick oxide of aluminium when aluminium is exposed to air. This coat makes it resistant to corrosion. Resistance can be improved by making a layer of oxide thinker. In this technique, the aluminium article is the anode, and the electrolyte is sulphuric acid. The anode reaction results in the formation of a black-coloured film of aluminium oxide on the anode. By putting appropriate dyes in the electrolytic solution, both coloured surface with the decorative finish is achieved. Kitchen articles like anodised such as pressure cookers, pans and frames of sliding windows are applications of this technique. |
- Name the anode and electrolyte used in this technique.
- How can we make aluminium articles made resistant to corrosion?
- Name the technique used to coat the aluminium articles.
