PROSPECTS FOR THE USE OF MICROARC OXIDATION IN THE PRODUCTION OF AVIATION AND AUTOMOTIVE COMPONENTS

This article discusses the prospects for the application of microarc oxidation (MAO) technology in the aviation and automotive industries. The MAO process allows the creation of durable, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant coatings on the surface of metal parts, which significantly increases their durability and performance characteristics. Technological aspects of MAO are discussed, including surface preparation features, selection of electrolytes and control of process parameters. Examples of successful application of MAO in the production of aviation and automotive components are given. Also, directions for further research and development of the technology are explored, including the creation of new materials, combined coatings and the study of the durability of coatings under real operating conditions. The article emphasizes the importance of MAO as a promising technology for improving the reliability and efficiency of vehicles and equipment.
