Abstract:
A thin, adherent coating is described that is highly absorptive to solar energy and has a low emissivity for thermal energy, thereby being a useful selective surface for solar energy collection. This coating is formed on aluminum and its alloys by a simple electrochemical process and consists of complex aluminum and molybdenum oxides and metallic molybdenum which are deposited as a near-monatomic layer of molybdenum and its oxides. The coating withstands exposure to 400. degree. F (204. degree. C) and 1 hour in boiling water without change in properties.
