ABSTRACT:
The invention is for a process for providing a protective, color receptive coating over aluminum using chemical means without a requirement for the use of an electric current as in electrical anodizing. Absent conventional steps such as water rinses, the process comprises cleaning, including desmutting of the surface of an aluminum part as necessary, and treatment with an aqueous alkaline solution of ferric citrate for a time sufficient to provide the coating over the part. The treated aluminum part has enhanced corrosion resistance and the coating over the part acts as a base for other coatings such as paint, and is readily dyed.
