8011 Aluminum Foil for Capsules

Leave Us Message Author:Mingtai Aluminum

8011-O temper pharmaceutical foil is another vital type of aluminum foil substrate used in drug packaging. Unlike the fully hard H18 temper, the "O temper" indicates that the aluminum foil has undergone a full annealing process, resulting in a completely softened state. This characteristic provides it with unique, irreplaceable advantages for use in blister packaging (PTP) for products such as capsules and tablets.


Common Specifications for 8011 Aluminum Foil Used in Capsules

  • 8011-O temper pharmaceutical foil is typically supplied in coil form, serving as a base material for further deep processing.

  • Thickness: 0.02 mm – 0.07 mm

  • Width: 200 mm – 1700 mm

  • Length/Coil Diameter: Supplied in coils; the specific length (in meters) or coil weight can be customized according to the requirements of your production equipment.


Comprehensive Characteristics and Application Advantages of 8011 Aluminum Foil for Capsules

Superior Barrier Properties: Offers excellent moisture resistance, light shielding, and a high-level barrier against light, oxygen, and water vapor. This effectively prevents capsules from becoming damp, oxidizing, or degrading due to light exposure, thereby significantly extending the shelf life of the medication.

Excellent Formability and Sealing: Thanks to its inherent softness, 8011-O temper aluminum foil adapts well to mold stretching during the blister packaging process. It features a high cupping value and strong heat-sealing capabilities, forming a tight bond with rigid plastic sheets (such as PVC) to ensure that each capsule is individually sealed and secure.

Easy Access: Despite its robust sealing performance, the soft-temper aluminum foil remains easy to tear or puncture. Patients can retrieve capsules or tablets simply by applying light pressure with a finger, making it highly convenient to use.

Outstanding Processing Adaptability: The surface is well-suited for high-quality rotogravure printing. Furthermore, the material is resistant to heat, low temperatures, and corrosion, making it suitable for a wide range of demanding storage and transportation environments.
