Alumínium ötvözet 1350, gyakran nevezik “1350 alufólia”, egy tiszta alumíniumötvözet, minimális alumíniumtartalommal 99.5%. Míg a tiszta alumíniumot általában nem használják gyógyszercsomagolásban, alumínium és ötvözetei (beleértve 1350 alumínium) megfelelő feldolgozás és bevonat után gyógyszercsomagolásban használható.
Pharmaceutical packaging requires certain properties to ensure the safety and preservation of pharmaceuticals, mint például:
Barrier Properties: Packaging materials should provide a barrier against moisture, oxigén, and other environmental factors to protect the drug product.
Sterility: Pharmaceutical packaging should maintain the sterility of the contents and prevent contamination.
Printability: Packaging materials should be capable of high-quality printing to display important information, branding, and instructions.
Ease of sealing: Packaging materials should be easy to seal securely to prevent tampering and maintain product integrity.
Biztonság: The material should be safe for direct contact with the drug and should not react with the drug or leach harmful substances into the drug.
Tiszta alumínium fólia (beleértve 1350 alumínium) may not meet all of these requirements without additional processing and coatings. Jellemzően, pharmaceutical packaging uses specially treated and coated aluminum foil to enhance its barrier properties, sealing properties and printability.
