8011 lacquered aluminum foil
A heat-seal lacquer is applied to the surface of 8011 aluminum foil, making it suitable for applications that require heat sealing with plastic, paper, or other substrates—such as bubble tea sealing films, pharmaceutical blisters, and food cup lids.
8011 color coated aluminum foil
A colored coating such as polyester, PVDF (fluorocarbon), or polyurethane is sprayed onto the surface of 8011 aluminum foil. It features uniform color and strong adhesion, making it widely used in appliance back panels, labels, and decorative applications.
8011 hydrophilic aluminum foil
The surface is specially treated to be hydrophilic, preventing water from forming droplets. It is widely used in air conditioner fins and heat exchangers to improve condensation efficiency and prevent frosting and water accumulation.
8011 hydrophobic aluminum foil
The surface has water-repellent properties, causing water droplets to slide off quickly without sticking. It is commonly used in specialized HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) applications, offering anti-corrosion and anti-fouling benefits that extend system lifespan.
8011 double-sided bright aluminum foil
Produced using a double-sided rolling process, both sides of the foil have a mirror-like finish. It is ideal for high-end packaging, electronic shielding, and reflective materials where superior appearance is required.
Contact us now8011 one-side bright / one-side matte aluminum foil
Featuring one bright side and one matte side, this is the most common type of 8011 aluminum foil. The bright side enhances visual appeal, while the matte side is suitable for heat sealing or lamination. It is widely used in food packaging, meal trays, and household foil.
Features of 8011 aluminum foil
Higher iron and silicon content for enhanced strength
8011 aluminum alloy contains trace amounts of iron (Fe) and silicon (Si), giving it better tensile strength and ductility compared to pure aluminum foils like 1235 or 1050. This makes it ideal for forming demanding packaging containers such as foil trays and food lids.
Cost-effective with a balance of softness and strength
Compared to high-end pharmaceutical foils like 8021, 8011 offers a good balance of performance and lower cost, making it suitable for large-scale and high-frequency use.
Compatible with multiple surface treatments
8011 aluminum foil supports a wide range of post-processing techniques, including lacquering, coating, printing, and embossing. It shows excellent adaptability in applications such as household foil, sealing films, food container lids, and pharmaceutical packaging.
Flexible supply in various tempers
Available in multiple tempers, 8011 foil can meet different application needs—from soft forming and high-strength pressing to heat sealing requirements.
Excellent wettability for pharmaceutical and laminated packaging
With strong surface wettability (typically rated A / A+), 8011 aluminum foil is ideal for gluing and lamination processes, particularly excelling in blister packs and flexible composite layers.
