    The effect of AC anodizing on the formation of oxide film on stainless steel 304L (SS304L) surfaces and its influence on the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) were studied in this study. The SS304L specimens were prepared before being anodized for 30 minutes at various voltages (range from 10 V to 50 V) using an AC power supply at room temperature. The surface morphology is studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and 3D profilometer. A potentiostat is used to run linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and Tafel analysis for the HER characterization. The result recorded the highest thickness of 9273.45 nm at 40 V anodizing voltage and the lowest surface roughness of 837.16 nm recorded at 50 V. The linear sweep polarization test solution exhibited the lowest overpotential at 50 V, 398.3 mV and a Tafel slope of 196 mVdec-1. These findings provide insight on the possibility of AC anodizing for improving the surface characteristics of SS304L for use in energy conversion applications.

    A novel method of anodizing stainless steel (SS) 304L with alternating current (AC) as the power source is presented in the interest of producing a porous oxide film. Since there is a scarcity of research on AC anodizing, this research work is focused on the electrochemistry and morphology of the oxide film generated on the SS304L. The anodizing is done in an ethylene glycol solution containing different concentrations of ammonium fluoride, NH4F, varying from 0.5 wt.% to 7 wt.%. The anodizing voltage is fixed to 40 V and the process is carried out at 25oC for 30 minutes. The electrochemical studies using the Tafel polarization method in terms of corrosion rate showed decreased values from 0.2842 mm/year to 0.1026 mm/year of the as-received, and anodized 3.0 wt.% specimens, respectively. For morphological studies, the oxide film formed on the anodized SS304L is characterized using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the thickness of the oxide film formed is recorded using 3D profilometer. The morphology demonstrated the formation of the porous arrangement with localized parts of the surface oxide layer and the thickness of the oxide film rises at 2.65 µm and 4.29 µm, respectively, when the NH4F concentration increases from 0.5 wt.% to 1.0 wt.%. This indicates that there are significant advantages of using AC anodizing on stainless steel.
