History of anodising

I am currently completing my M.A. My subject is the detailed multi-colouring of anodised aluminium. My research has been directed towards metal artists, not commercial production.

I have achieved successful results, applying up to twenty colours in an illustration. I am searching for information regarding the history of anodising aliminium, can anyone help?

Dear Mr. Walsh, Have just read your request for any info on the history of anodising. My only suggestion is to contact the Technical Section at Alcoa Refinery, Geelong, Victoria. In the past they have been very helpful in providing material on any topic concerning aluminium.
