We present a new approach to fabricate Al2O3-TiO2 composite oxide films on the low-voltage etched aluminum foils by integrating a facile electrophoresis deposition method, annealing post-treatment and anodization. The prepared Al2O3-TiO2 composite oxide films effectively increase the specific capacitance of the etched aluminum foils, resulting in a 20% enhancement compared with those using pure etched aluminum foils. Our approach demonstrates a new method to fabricate high specific capacitance composite oxide films on etched aluminum foils which will be ready for industrial application in aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
