Abstract
The growth of anodic oxide films on zirconium metal has been followed up to 300 V by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The maximum layer thickness is 720 nm, the dielectric constant of the film is measured at 19.5 and the growth constant is 2.4 nm V^–1^. Above 50 V, the presence of two impedance relaxations between 1 Hz and 200 kHz reveals a bilayered structure. This may be a consequence of a lower resistivity of the outer layer induced by some electrolytic solution infiltration into film defects. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

The frequency dependence of the impedance of the anodic tilm on Zr has been determined using UC impedance spectroscopy. This technique has been used to provide an in situ monitor of the thickness and resistance of the lilm during formation. The data suggest that the film can be modelled adequately b
## Fluoride ion used either in the surface preparation or in the subsequent anodising of zirconium has a profound effect upon the stresses in the zirconium oxide anodic layer. By a suitable choice of surface preparation, anodising electrolyte, and growth rate, anodic oxide films can be grown on th
