Porous Anodic Alumina (PAA) was prepared by two-step anodization on both sides of an aluminium foil. The anodization carried out at anodizing temperature 17oC using oxalic acid as an anodizing electrolyte. The (PAA) template was characterized with optical microscope and SEM. The optical microscope image showed two (PAA) layers after the dissolution of the residual aluminium. The average pore diameter was found to be (75) nm. The average interpore distance of (PAA) prepared was found to be (99) nm. The thickness of (PAA) was found to be (59.5) μm.
