Top Three Uses of Aluminum Foils

Because of its excellent characteristics, aluminum foil is widely used as the packaging material of food, beverages, cigarettes, pharmaceuticals; as the capacitor material; as the insulation material of vehicles, ships, houses; as the gold and silver thread for decoration.

Among these applications, these following three uses of aluminum foils occupy most aluminum foil consumption: food aluminum foil,aluminum fin stock, aluminum foil for capacitor.

Food Aluminium Foil

Aluminum foil is of good air tightness, light shading, clean and safe. It can efficiently keep the freshness and fragrance of food. When aluminum foil is used for cooking or barbecuing, it can helps to evenly heat the food to prevent the food from scorching,.

Food aluminum foil price usually depends on the alloy grade, specifications, technical requirements and dosage. The commonly used alloys and tempers are 8011 / H22, 8011 / H24, 8011 / O, and 3003 / H24 aluminum foil. Generally, the price of 3 series aluminum foil is higher than that of 8 series aluminum foil.

Aluminum Fin Stock

Aluminum foil is an important kind of aluminum fin stock ,which is mainly used for the converter of air conditioner. The converter is one of the key components of the air conditioner, which is mainly used to realize the heat exchange between the indoor air and the refrigerant in the pipeline of the air conditioning system.

Air conditioner foil is a special material for manufacturing converter fins for air conditioners. The common alloys for air-conditioning foil are 1100 aluminum foil, 3003 aluminum foil, and 8011 aluminum foil. They are usually in the tempers of O, H22, H24, and H26.

Aluminum Foil for Capacitor

Making a a capacitor with aluminum foil requires aluminum foil has larger surface area and sufficient bending strength. Aluminum foil capacitor is used for the following equipment:

l OA/VA equipment (computer, digital TV, DVD, audio equipment).

l Information equipment(mobile phone battery parts, information infrastructure).

l Automotive related parts (denso equipment, electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles).

l Energy-saving related equipment (frequency conversion appliances).
