What Aluminum Foils Are Needed In Daily Life?
Aluminum foil is hot in our life. From thick foil to single-zero foil and double-zero foil, this kind of material with a thickness of no more than 0.2mm contains a lot of energy in a thin piece, which can go up to nine days and go down to five seas.
In daily life, there are household foils, container foils, lunch box foils, food foils, flexible packaging foils, foils. In addition, the places where aluminum foil is commonly used in life include medicine foil, cigarette foil, hairdressing foil. And decorative foil for interior walls of buildings and indoor furniture.
Household Foil
Household foils are widely used in cooking, freezing, fresh-keeping, baking and other industries. In the refrigerator or freezer, you can directly wrap the aluminum foil on the food, which can keep the food from deforming, and prevent the water loss of fish, vegetables, fruits, and dishes, and prevent the leakage or mixing of flavors. Common specifications: 0.007-0.05mm
Medicine Foil
Medicine foil has the advantages of non-toxic, corrosion-resistant, impermeable, heat-resistant, moisture-proof, light-blocking, high-temperature sterilization, etc. It’s mainly used for blister packaging of pharmaceutical capsules, tablets, etc., as well as bag packaging of powder granules and water , especially PTP aluminum foil is moisture-proof, easy to carry, safe and hygienic. The production environment requirements of pharmaceutical aluminum foil processing plants are relatively high. For example, the requirements are not lower than 100,000-level purification workshops.
Air Conditioner Foil
Air conditioner foil is a special material for the manufacture of heat exchanger fins for air conditioners. The air conditioner foil used in the early days was plain foil. In order to improve the surface properties of the plain foil, it’s coated with an anti-corrosion inorganic coating and a hydrophilic organic coating before forming to form a hydrophilic foil. In addition, there is another kind of hydrophobic foil, which makes the surface of the fins have a hydrophobic function and prevents condensation from sticking.
Electronic Foil
After the aluminum material is processed into a foil, the electronic aluminum foil is subjected to surface corrosion treatment and re-oxidation treatment. And then winding processing to make a capacitor. Electronic aluminum foil refers to light foil, which is the key raw material for the production of aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The electrode foil includes corrosion foil and formed foil.
Container Foil
Applied to food utensils such as fast food restaurants, takeaway fast-dating stores, high-end hotels, airline tableware, and family kitchens. It has the characteristics of beautiful appearance, convenient use, safety and sanitation, and no odor pollution. Common specifications: 0.01-0.2mm
Hookah Foil
Aluminum foil for cigarettes is mainly compounded with paper and used as the inner lining paper of cigarette boxes. The aluminum foil paper used as the inner lining paper of cigarettes mainly includes calendered aluminum foil paper and aluminized paper. The surface of the tobacco foil is smooth and traceless, the plate shape is flat. There are few pinholes, the cost is relatively low, and the chemical properties are relatively stable. The aluminum foil inside the cigarette box has two main functions: one is to preserve the fragrance, the aluminum foil can prevent the smell of cigarettes from spreading, and at the same time prevent the smell of cigarettes from corroding other items; the other is to prevent mildew.
Cable Foil
Cable foil requires less oil on the surface, no holes, high mechanical properties, low overall quality requirements, but extremely strict requirements on length. Commonly used thickness is: 0.007-0.2mm
