Abstract
Following the ever increasing interest towards the combination between aluminum anodization and incorporation of relatively affordable metals, a brief study was performed on the impact of the duration of AC-electrochemical incorporation of silver on the resulting optical properties and color characteristics. The experiments performed on technically pure aluminum included: anodization in galvanostatic regime; AC-electrochemical silver incorporation, characterization of the optical properties by light reflectance and refractive colorimetric measurements. This systematic study enabled to determine some correlation between the coloring process duration and the resulting optical and color features.
