Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is an environmentally friendly technique that allows the growth of ceramic coatings without organic solvents and non-toxic residues. This method was applied to ASME SB-265 titanium (Ti) plates (2×2×0.1cm) using voltage pulses from a switching power supply (340V) for 10 minutes at frequency of 1000Hz changing duty cycle at 10, 60 and 90% and the electrolytes were Na3PO4 and NaOH. The treated sheets surfaces were analysed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. According to the diffractograms, the duty cycle increase produces amorphous TiO2 coating on Ti sheets and the thickness increases. After sintering at 900°C during 1 hour, the 10% duty cycle generated a combination of anatase and rutile phases at the sample surface with weight percentages of 13.3 and 86.6% and particle sizes of 32.461±0.009nm and 141.14±0.03 nm, respectively. With this sample, the total reduction of hexavalent chromium was reached at 50 minutes for 1ppm solution. This photocatalytic activity was measured following the colorimetric method ASTM-3500-Cr B.
