There are many types of pipes, such as plastic pipes and metal pipes. However, no matter which material is used, there is no aluminum tube. Why?
The aluminum tube is made of aluminum as the raw material. It makes full use of the advantages of aluminum. The first point is good anti-corrosion and anti-rust performance. The surface of the aluminum material itself has a dense oxide film, which can effectively prevent the surface of the aluminum material from coming into contact with the external water vapor, chemical substances, etc., preventing corrosion, prolonging the service life of the pipe, and expanding the application range. The reason why aluminum tube custom manufacturers can receive a large number of orders.
Secondly, compared with other metal raw materials, the aluminum reserves are larger and the sales price is lower, which results in the production cost of the aluminum tubes is lower than other metal pipes, and the price advantage cannot be ignored.
Finally, compared with plastic pipes, aluminum pipes are resistant to high temperature and fire resistance, do not have to worry about prolonged exposure, and have better performance. This is also the main reason why aluminum tube manufacturers can develop.

With the increasing use of aluminum foil in the market in recent years, the specifications and uses of various aluminum foils are briefly summarized as follows:
![[Image: templatemo_image_01.jpg]](http://aluminium-foils-cn.com/images/templatemo_image_01.jpg)
1: thickness.
Aluminum foil can be divided into single zero aluminum foil and double zero aluminum foil according to thickness
Single zero foil: thickness is generally 0.01mm---0.1mm
Double zero foil: thickness is generally 0.005mm-0.009mm
Aluminum foil specifications and uses
2: shape
Aluminum foil is generally classified into a roll foil and a sheet foil according to its shape.
Because the thickness is too thin, the slicing is easy to cause wrinkles and scratches, and it is not conducive to the placement of the fascia. Therefore, most manufacturers produce curl foils, and occasionally make foils with special requirements.
3: Status
Aluminum foils are available in three general states depending on their application: H18, H24 and O.
4: Features
(1) The surface of the aluminum foil is smooth and oil-free, which is not conducive to the growth of bacteria.
(2) Food aluminum foil can be in direct contact with food, which does not cause harm to human health, and it is not easy to volatilize itself, so the packaged food will not be dry and deformed.
(3) The aluminum foil has a large hardness and a large tensile strength, but its tear strength is small, so that it is easily torn.
(4) The aluminum foil itself cannot be heat-sealed and must be coated with a heat-sensitive material such as pe to be heat-sealed.
In summary, due to the excellent performance of its aluminum foil and the continuous improvement of production technology, aluminum foil is widely used in the following industries; beverage packaging, flexible packaging, cigarette packaging, capacitors and construction industry. In addition, in recent years, various new concepts of packaging materials have appeared on the market. Due to the excellent performance and relatively low cost of aluminum foil packaging, these new materials have not formed a substantial market and substantial impact on aluminum foil.

Compared with the general aluminum material, the color coated aluminum coil has two different color coated aluminum coils. One point is the unique storage method. The color coated aluminum coil adopts a unique roll design, which has the advantage of saving material use space. . The roll design makes the storage of aluminum coils more modular and facilitates the transportation of materials. Another point is that the surface of the color coated aluminum coil is coated with a special coating process, and the coating process has a good coating to protect the surface of the material. Improve the rust and corrosion resistance of the material.
The color coated aluminum coil has many advantages. The quality of the aluminum material is very light. This is well reflected in the color coated aluminum coil. Compared with the general metal material, the density of the aluminum material is small. Covering material, the lightness of the material itself reduces its bearing capacity and is very good protection for the internal materials.
The color coated aluminum coil also has good appearance performance. Compared with other materials, the aluminum coil material has more color matching due to the unique coating design, giving customers more choices. The surface treatment of the material is especially in place, and the surface of the aluminum coil material is very smooth, giving a visual comfort.

As a product with a high value in the family of aluminum materials, the design and development of color coated aluminum coils have attracted many users. Compared with the general aluminum plate, the color coated aluminum coil fully optimizes the surface of the material in the design and production process. Not only does the color have more choices, but also improves the performance of the material. The advantages of the color coated aluminum coil are many.
Careful observation of the color coated aluminum coil, you will be convinced by the process of the surface of the aluminum material in place, look at the material, the paint is not as rough as expected, but has a good compatibility with the metal surface of the material. Therefore, the surface flatness of the material is controlled, especially the price of the color coated aluminum coil is in place, and the feeling of the hand or the sense of sight gives a different feeling. The appearance of the color-coated aluminum coil is especially good, regardless of the color or shape of the material, giving people a greater space for maneuvering when selecting. Users can choose the color according to their own preferences when choosing, and the color coated aluminum coil has a very good decorative function.
Secondly, the material storage function, like some new aluminum materials, the color coated aluminum coil adopts the roll design, can store more materials in the same space, and is more convenient in the installation and laying process of the materials, the operator is When installing, you only need to fix the aluminum coil and freely extract the length of the material according to your own needs. The in-situ manufacturing process of the material improves the performance of the product. Regardless of the rust resistance and strength of the material, it has a good test in the process of adaptation. What matters need to be paid attention to during the use of the color coated aluminum coil?
The material has the characteristics of easy processing, and the shape and size of the material need to be changed according to the needs of the user during use.

| Several Elements Affecting The Quality Of Aluminum Coil |
|

In our previous articles, we have explained a lot about the properties of aluminium rolled sheet, or some practical skills, but we forgot to say which elements will cause problems or changes in the quality of aluminium rolled sheet. Today, let's talk about the factors that affect the quality of aluminium rolled sheet.
1. alloy elements
6063 alloy is made up of aluminium, magnesium and silicon as the main elements. Each element has a certain content. The price of magnesium is high. In order to reduce the cost, some manufacturers reduce the amount of magnesium to the minimum allowable content. Some even worse, the content of magnesium is lower than the minimum allowable content. Other factories add waste wires and pots to the alloy, basically not 6063 alloy. As a result, the mechanical strength of aluminium profiles is very low, so that it can be easily bent with two hands and one bend, commonly known as noodles as soft. This is one of the reasons why aluminium can be cheaper by thousands of yuan.
2. aluminum alloy smelting furnace
How to melt the matched 6063 alloy and what kind of furnace to use are also very important. The furnace used in our country now has the level of the 1940s and the level of the 1990s. The worst manufacturer uses the original crucible boiler. There are coal-fired, oil-fired, gas-fired and electrically heated smelting furnaces. Some stoves have chimneys, others have no chimneys. Generally used is square furnace (rectangular furnace), advanced is circular furnace, some circular furnace can tilt pour aluminium. On the tonnage, there are one ton, two tons, five tons, ten tons, twenty-five tons and fifty tons of aluminium melting furnace. A more advanced one is to add a stationary furnace and a stationary furnace under the aluminium melting furnace to prepare 6063 alloy, which can be used for slag removal and degassing, stationary, and then cast aluminium rods and aluminium ceiling for extrusion. The quality of alloys prepared in the original coal-fired furnace is absolutely different from that in the modern round furnace. In general, no matter what kind of fuel is burned, there should be a flue gas. Most of the waste gas and slag produced during the combustion of fuel can be discharged from the flue gas. If all the waste gases and slags without chimneys are melted in aluminium water, the aluminium rods for extrusion can be cast in this way. There are serious slag inclusion bubbles inside. This is one of the reasons for the poor quality of aluminium materials, and this is also one of the reasons for the low price of aluminium. Color coated aluminum coil
3. alloy casting
The level of domestic foundry equipment is also far from each other. The oldest foundry equipment in China has the level of iron mould casting in the 1940s, and advanced hydraulic semi-continuous casting. The crystalline structure of cast rod in iron mould casting is very poor, and there are a lot of slag and bubbles in the cast rod. The quality of cast rod is very poor. Now it is commonly used in factories that horizontal casting (also known as continuous casting) and semi-continuous casting, semi-continuous casting, most of the wire rope transmission, the best hydraulic transmission. The length of semi-continuous casting rod varies from 3 meters, 4 meters to 8 meters. Semi-continuous casting is pit-type, casting while falling, cooling around with cold water, because the water cooling around is uniform, the crystalline structure of the casting rod is uniform and fine. However, the downward transmission of steel wire rope is not as smooth as that of hydraulic transmission. The surface of the cast rod by hydraulic casting is smoother than that of other cast rods. Smooth surface of cast bar is one of the preconditions for extruding profile. The surface of cast rod is rough by other methods. In order to ensure the quality of profile, sometimes the rough surface of cast rod is removed by turning one knife first. Now the commonly used semi-continuous casting die is advanced and hot-top casting die with the same level. The characteristics of this kind of casting die can cast several to dozens at a time. At the same time, the casting quality is good. With high quality 6063 Aluminium Alloy Casting rod, it is possible to produce good aluminium profile. If the original and old casting equipment is used, it is impossible to cast. Good casting rods can not produce good aluminum profiles at all. There are many aluminium factories in China. Instead of equipments for producing aluminium bars, they purchase 6063 alloy bars from electric aluminium factories or other factories. The quality of aluminium materials in such factories is in the hands of the casting bar factories. It is difficult for the aluminium materials produced to achieve quality stability. Compared with advanced casting equipment, using backward equipment has the advantages of low investment and low production cost, which is one of the reasons why there is a big difference in sales price of aluminium materials.

What are the production processes of aluminum ingots? We first produce bauxite, produce aluminum ore fines through processes such as washing and grinding, and then obtain alumina by four complicated processes such as roasting, and the main bauxite producing alumina There are three types: gibbsite, diaspore, and boehmite. Among the proven global reserves of bauxite, 92% are weathered laterite bauxite, which is a gibbsite type. These bauxites are characterized by low silicon, high iron, high aluminum to silicon ratio, concentrated in Africa. West, Oceania and Central and South America. The remaining 8% are sedimentary bauxites, belonging to boehmite and diaspore, medium to low grade, mainly distributed in Greece, the former Yugoslavia and Hungary.
The production of aluminum ingots is composed of bauxite mining, alumina production, and aluminum electrolysis.
Due to the different characteristics of the three bauxite mines, each alumina production enterprise adopts different production processes in production, mainly including Bayer method, soda lime sintering method and Bayer-sintering combined method. Generally, high-grade bauxite is produced by the Bayer process, and low-grade bauxite is produced by a combined method or a sintering method. Due to its simple process and low energy consumption, it has become the main method used in the current production of aluminum ingots. The output accounts for about 95% of the total global alumina production. Alumina is electrolyzed by aluminum under the action of a strong current. This process is called electrolytic aluminum;

Aluminum ingots are made of pure aluminum and recycled aluminum. Other elements such as silicon (Si), copper (Cu), magnesium (Mg) and iron (Fe) are added according to international standards or special requirements to improve the castability of pure aluminum. An alloy that is formulated with chemical and physical deficiencies.
Then, will the aluminum ingot rust? Many netizens have doubts. They have seen copper rust and have seen iron rust, but have never seen aluminum rust. Doesn't aluminum rust? In fact, aluminum powder, aluminum Aluminum products such as grains will of course rust, but aluminum rust does not rust like iron until it is rusted.
The metal is oxidized by oxygen in the air and is rusted. The aluminum ingot reacts with oxygen to form aluminum oxide, which is aluminum rust. Aluminium rust is very thin, its thickness is only one ten thousandth of a millimeter, but it is very hard and very wear-resistant. It is close to the surface of the aluminum, so that the aluminum inside is not exposed to the outside air, preventing the aluminum from continuing to rust.
Alumina films also have "busters": one is a base and the other is an acid. When the alumina meets them, a chemical reaction occurs to form a compound, which causes the aluminum oxide film on the surface of the aluminum ingot to easily fall off.
In daily life, the dishes often contain acid and alkali ingredients. Therefore, do not put the wine in the aluminum utensils, so as not to damage the aluminum pan. In addition, do not rub with sand because the surface of the aluminum pan is gray and embarrassing. Although the aluminum pan is brighter, the aluminum pan loses the protective film on the surface, and the aluminum pan continues to oxidize, affecting its service life.

Aluminum, our daily industrial raw material is called aluminum ingot. According to the national standard, it should be called “remelting aluminum ingot”, but everyone is used to “aluminum ingot”. It is a product obtained by smelting (or refining) and casting produced by electrolysis using alumina-cryolite. The composition of aluminum ingots is divided into:
1. High-grade pure aluminum: The content of aluminum is 99.93%-99.999%;
2. Industrial high-purity aluminum: The content of aluminum is 99.85%-99.90%;
3. Industrial pure aluminum: The content of aluminum is 98.0%-99.7%.
There are two main categories of aluminum ingots after entering industrial applications: cast aluminum alloys and deformed aluminum alloys. Cast aluminum and aluminum alloys are castings for the production of aluminum by casting; deformed aluminum and aluminum alloys are processed products of aluminum by pressure processing: plates, strips, foils, tubes, rods, profiles, wires and forgings.
Aluminum ingots for remelting are mostly used in light industry, electric power, electrical, electronics, automotive, machinery manufacturing, construction, packaging and other industries:
1. In the construction industry, aluminum is widely used due to its stability in air and its appearance after anode treatment.
2. Aluminium ingots are also used in large quantities in the aviation and defense military departments to produce aluminum alloy materials.
3. In the power transmission, high-strength steel wire is used to reinforce the aluminum cable.
4, kitchen appliances are the early use of "aluminum", there is still a very large market today.
5. Based on its chemical resistance, "aluminum" is particularly suitable for use in the manufacture and storage of chemicals.
6. "Aluminum" has a high affinity for oxygen, so it is also widely used as an oxygen scavenger for steel and iron.
7. Others: Aluminum powder, aluminum grain, aluminum block, aluminum wire, aluminum bean and other aluminum materials are also widely used in automobile manufacturing, container transportation, daily necessities, household appliances, machinery and other industries.
