Zusammenfassung:Aluminum anodizing in electrolytes comprising mixtures of several acids opens way to manufacture porous films of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) with a widely tunable structure period. Study of thermal transformations in AAO films produced in mixed electrolytes is a separate task, as a complex chemical composition of the material can give rise to some specifics in subsequent annealing. Impurity oxalate and sulfate ions were detected in the AAO produced by aluminum anodizing in sulfuric acid/oxalic acid mixed electrolytes. The sulfate weight fraction appears about one order of magnitude higher than the oxalate weight fraction, and it increases as the concentration ratio of sulfuric acid to oxalic acid in the electrolyte increases. In the same way, the crystallization temperature of amorphous AAO to a mixture of low-temperature Al 2 O 3 polymorphs increases in response to increasing concentration ratio of sulfuric acid and oxalic acid. Thus, the component ratio in the mixed electrolyte used influences the composition and thermal transformations of AAO.
