Aliaj de aluminiu 1350, adesea denumită “1350 folie de aluminiu”, este un aliaj de aluminiu pur cu un conținut minim de aluminiu de 99.5%. În timp ce aluminiul pur nu este utilizat în mod obișnuit în ambalajele farmaceutice, aluminiu și aliajele sale (inclusiv 1350 aluminiu) poate fi utilizat în ambalajele farmaceutice după prelucrare și acoperire corespunzătoare.
Pharmaceutical packaging requires certain properties to ensure the safety and preservation of pharmaceuticals, ca:
Proprietăți de barieră: Packaging materials should provide a barrier against moisture, oxigen, 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.
Siguranţă: 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.
Folie de aluminiu pură (inclusiv 1350 aluminiu) may not meet all of these requirements without additional processing and coatings. De obicei, pharmaceutical packaging uses specially treated and coated aluminum foil to enhance its barrier properties, sealing properties and printability.
