Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Anodizing - Part 2: Determination of mass per unit area (surface density) of anodic oxidation coatings - Gravimetric method EN 12373-2:1998

Publication date:   Jun 4, 2001

Scope

This part of this European Standard specifies a gravimetric method for determining the mass per unit area (surface density) of anodic oxidation coatings on aluminium and its alloys. The method is applicable to all oxide coatings formed by anodizing aluminium and its alloys, either cast or wrought, and is suitable for most aluminium alloys except those in which the copper content is greater than 6 %.
