Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are a method for an anodizing treatment on an aluminum-based material and a structure of an internal combustion engine which are provided with both high heat insulation properties and a high corrosion resistance, a high durability and a high impact resistance, and high water-repellent and oil-repellent functions. This method comprises the steps of: forming a second anodic oxide coating 2b by application of AC-DC superimposition electrolysis to an aluminum-based material 1; and, after the step, forming a first anodic oxide coating 2a by application of direct-current electrolysis to the aluminum-based material 1, wherein the second anodic oxide coating 2b is formed on the first anodic oxide coating 2a.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A structure of an internal combustion engine, comprising at least: a first anodic oxide coating on a surface of an aluminum-based material constituting a combustion chamber in an internal combustion engine; and a second anodic oxide coating on a surface of the first anodic oxide coating, wherein the first anodic oxide coating has more pores therein than the second anodic oxide coating, and a film thickness of the first anodic oxide coating is greater than a film thickness of the second anodic oxide coating, wherein the film thickness of the second anodic oxide coating is 10 μm to 100 μm, and a total film thickness of the first anodic oxide coating and the second anodic oxide coating is greater than or equal to 50 μm, and wherein the second anodic oxide coating has a random orientation by AC-DC superimposition electrolysis. 2. The structure of an internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the first anodic oxide coating has a porosity of 25% to 75%. 3. The structure of an internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the total film thickness of the first anodic oxide coating and the second anodic oxide coating is 50 μm to 500 μm. 4. The structure of an internal combustion engine according claim 1 , wherein the first anodic oxide coating is obtained by application of direct-current electrolysis, and the second anodic oxide coating is obtained by application of AC-DC superimposition electrolysis. 5. The structure of an internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein silicon and nano-level pores derived from the silicon are present in the first anodic coating.
