8079 Aluminum Foil Description

8079 heat sealing aluminium foil, with one side bright and the other side dull, is a typical product of aluminum alloy used for pharmaceutical packing foil. The dull side is for adhesiveness and also having length requirement. This material with guaranteed chemical components and mechanical properties under a professional production system. XieNuo heat resistant aluminium foil tape possesses good surface quality and moister-proof and abrasion resistance. It has been tested out qualified for food and pharmaceutical grade.

What is aluminum foil?

Aluminum foil is a stamping material made of metallic aluminum directly calendered into thin sheets and is widely used in food, beverage and pharmaceutical applications. The main production technology for aluminum foil is rolling. There are two recognized technologies for aluminum foil production: casting and rolling and hot rolling. Casting and rolling mainly involves melting the base material through a melting furnace, placing the aluminum melted into a liquid in a resting furnace, removing other metal impurities from the liquid through metal filtration, and making aluminum foil by cooling and casting and rolling. Hot rolling is mainly applicable to the production of aluminum foil alloy, and temperature control is required during the production process.
