In order to fabricate multi-materials such as joining between aluminum alloy and engineering plastics for the purpose of lightening the weight of automobiles, this study investigated surface treatments to improve the adhesion and corrosion resistance of A5052 aluminum alloy. The two-step anodizing p...
