Properties
Aluminum foil is extremely pliable, and can be bent or wrapped around
objects with ease.
Aluminium foil acts as a complete barrier to light and oxygen, odors and flavors, moisture, and bacteria, and is therefore used extensively in food
and pharmaceutical packaging.
Aluminium foil is used to make long life packs (aseptic packaging) for
drinks and dairy products which enables storage without refrigeration.
Aluminium foil laminates are also used to package many other oxygen or
moisture sensitive foods, and tobacco, in the form of pouches, sachets
and tubes, and as tamper evident closures. Aluminium foil containers
and trays are used to bake pies and to pack takeaway meals, ready snacks and long life pet foods. |
