Image binarization to calculate porosity of porous anodic oxides and derivation of porosity vs current
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Current methods to calculate porosity of tubular or porous structures are either inaccurate or complicated for operation. We introduce a facile method (M7) based on image binarization of top-view specimen images from scanning electron microscopy. M7 is both accurate and convenient, and shows high robustness regardless of external parameters like brightness or contrast. Relation between porosity and applied current during galvanostatic anodization is derived. The porosity-current relation differs in aqueous and organic solution, which can be explained as different conductivity of two electrolytes.
