Abstract

In this study, we have developed a constant current method for fabrication of AAO membranes with a large interpore distance in order to avoid the burning phenomenon. From our preliminary results, the average growth rate of AAO membranes could increase up to 6 μm/hr with an applied current density of 6 mA/cm2 and the burning phenomenon could be totally avoided at a relatively high anodizing voltage of 175 V. The effect of current density on the growth rate and burning phenomenon was also investigated.
