Physical Behavior of Nanoporous Anodic Alumina Using Nanoindentation and Microhardness Tests

<p>Abstract</p><p>In this paper, the mechanical response and deformation behavior of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) were investigated using experimental nanoindentation and Vickers hardness tests. The results showed the contact angle for the nanoporous AAO specimen was 105&#176; a...
