Alumīnija sakausējums 1350, bieži dēvē par “1350 alumīnija folija”, ir tīrs alumīnija sakausējums ar minimālo alumīnija saturu 99.5%. Lai gan tīru alumīniju parasti neizmanto farmācijas iepakojumā, alumīnijs un tā sakausējumi (ieskaitot 1350 alumīnija) pēc pareizas apstrādes un pārklājuma var izmantot farmaceitiskajā iepakojumā.
Pharmaceutical packaging requires certain properties to ensure the safety and preservation of pharmaceuticals, piemēram,:
Barjeras īpašības: Packaging materials should provide a barrier against moisture, skābeklis, 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, zīmola veidošana, and instructions.
Ease of sealing: Packaging materials should be easy to seal securely to prevent tampering and maintain product integrity.
Drošība: 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.
Tīra alumīnija folija (ieskaitot 1350 alumīnija) may not meet all of these requirements without additional processing and coatings. Parasti, pharmaceutical packaging uses specially treated and coated aluminum foil to enhance its barrier properties, sealing properties and printability.
