What is 1100 grade aluminium foil?

“1100 aluminum foil” refers to a kind of aluminum alloy foil, “1100” is the alloy number of the aluminum alloy, which means that the aluminum alloy content of aluminum foil 1100 is 99%, which is the alloy with higher commercial purity in the 1000 series alloy.

1100 aluminum foil chemical composition

1100 aluminum foil product characteristics

1100 aluminum foil strip belongs to pure aluminum alloy series, with relatively low strength, excellent ductility, formability, weldability and corrosion resistance; after anodizing, the corrosion resistance can be further improved, and a beautiful surface can be obtained at the same time; but it cannot be strengthened by heat treatment . Al 1100 foil is best suited for welding, brazing and brazing, but is less machinable. 1100 aluminum foil has an excellent finish and is an excellent choice for decorative purposes.

Aluminum foil 1100 product specifications

1100 aluminum foil density

Foil Alloy 1100 has a density of approximately 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or 2700 kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³). This is the standard density value for most aluminum alloys, including alloy 1100. The density of aluminum alloy 1100 may vary slightly due to factors such as impurities and manufacturing processes.

Properties of aluminum 1100 foil

1100 Aluminum Foil is a non-thermally strengthenable alloy that generally has good weldability and corrosion resistance. At the same time, it has many other product characteristics.

1. High purity: Alloy 1100 is almost pure aluminum, and its aluminum content exceeds 99%.

2. Good softness: Since it has not undergone heat treatment, 1100 alloy is usually soft and easy to process and bend.

3. Strong electrical conductivity: pure aluminum has good electrical conductivity, so 1100 aluminum foil is often used in the fields of electronics and electrical appliances.

4. Corrosion resistance: 1100 aluminum alloy has good corrosion resistance in most environments, especially in the atmosphere.

5. Strong weldability: Due to its low melting point and good weldability, 1100 aluminum alloy is very suitable for various welding methods.

The characteristics of 1100 aluminum foil alloy can be widely used in food packaging, household items, electronic equipment casings, etc.

What is aa1100 aluminum foil standard?

AA1100 refers to aluminum alloy 1100, which is a commercially pure aluminum alloy with excellent corrosion resistance, high electrical conductivity, and good processability. The “AA” prefix stands for the Aluminum Association, a U.S. organization that develops standards and guidelines for the aluminum industry. The Aluminum Association has assigned numerical names to various aluminum alloys for easy identification and classification.

Alloy 1100 is often referred to as “commercially pure” aluminum because it contains a minimum of 99.00% aluminum. It is one of the most common aluminum alloys, known for its softness and absence of important alloying elements.
