Coated Aluminum Coils The coated aluminum coil refers to the aluminum coil that are coated with one or more layers of organic coatings. It has the advantages of being lightweight, corrosion-resistant, easy to process, and environmentally friendly, and is widely used in construction, home appliances, transportation, decoration and other fields. The production process of colored aluminum mainly relies on roller coating.

5. Types According to the type of coating, color coated aluminum coils can be divided into two categories: PVDF coated aluminum coil and PE coated aluminum coil. PVDF coated aluminum coil It refers to coating the surface of the aluminum coil with a coating containing fluorocarbon resin to form an aluminum product with excellent weather resistance, UV resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and self-cleaning properties. Fluorocarbon pre-coated aluminum coils are suitable for high-end building curtain walls, roofs, ceilings and other occasions, and their service life can reach more than 20 years. PE coated aluminum coil It refers to coating the surface of the aluminum coil with coating containing polyester resin to form an aluminum product with good adhesion, rich colors and environmental protection performance. This precoated aluminum coil is suitable for indoor and outdoor decoration, doors, windows, home appliances and other occasions, and their service life can reach about 10 years. Manufacturing process Uncoiling Put the aluminum coil into the uncoiler and unroll it into a flat strip. Cleaning The uncoiled aluminum strip is fed into a cleaning machine, and acid and alkali solutions are used to remove oil and rust to make the surface clean and smooth. Preprocessing The cleaned aluminum coil is fed into the pre-treatment machine, and a conversion agent is used to chemically convert it to form a dense and uniform conversion film to enhance its adhesion to the paint. Painting The pretreated aluminum coil is fed into the coating machine and sprayed with primer and topcoat one or more times with a roller or spray gun to form a coating with the desired color and effect.

6. Solidifying The coated aluminum coil is is sent into a curing oven and dried and cured at high temperature to achieve the required hardness and gloss. Cutting The cured aluminum coil is fed into the cutting machine and cut longitudinally and transversely according to the customer's requirements to obtain pre-coated aluminum coils of the required specifications and sizes. Inspection During the production and manufacturing process, the quality of color aluminum coils needs to be tested, including surface quality, flatness, thickness, etc. Package The processed color aluminum coils are packaged and appropriate protective measures are taken to ensure that they will not be damaged during transportation. How to purchase color aluminum coils When purchasing color aluminum coils, you should choose a reputable aluminum coil manufacturer. You should consider it from the following aspects: Processing performance Since color aluminum coils require stamping, cutting, bending and other processing operations, their processing performance should be fully considered when purchasing. Choosing color aluminum coils with good processing properties can reduce processing difficulty and improve production efficiency. Specifications According to the needs of the actual application scenario, select the color aluminum coil with appropriate thickness, width and length to ensure that it meets the usage requirements. At the same time, it should be noted that color aluminum coils of different specifications may differ in price and quality, so a reasonable selection needs to be made based on budget and actual needs. Surface treatment quality The surface treatment quality of color aluminum coils has an important impact on its aesthetics

7. and durability. When purchasing, you should pay attention to the adhesion and wear resistance of the surface coating to ensure it has a long service life and good decorative effect. Relevant standards and regulations Colored aluminum coils for different uses may be subject to different standards and regulations, such as safety performance requirements and environmental protection requirements for building exterior wall decoration materials. Is Aluminum Foil Hydrophilic Aircon aluminum foil is divided into hydrophilic aluminum foil and plain aluminum foil. So not any kind of aluminum foil is hydrophilic. They accounts for 80% and 20% of the total air-conditioning foils respectively. The surface of the former has anti-corrosion and organic hydrophilic coating, which has good anti-corrosion and hydrophilic properties. It also has the characteristics of anti-fungal, stamping resistance, solvent resistance and heat resistance. The heat exchange rate is 10~15% higher than that of ordinary aluminum foil.

8. The AC foil tape used in the early days was plain foil. In order to improve the surface properties of plain foil, an anti-corrosion inorganic coating and a hydrophilic organic coating are applied before forming to form a hydrophilic foil, which is widely used in household and industrial air conditioners, refrigeration cabinets, automobile air conditioners and other refrigeration equipment. The thickness of air conditioning foil is 0.07mm~0.2mm. The surface of hydrophilic aluminum foil has a strong affinity for water. Condensed water spreads quickly on the fins and is not easy to form "water bridges". Therefore, the ventilation effect is good when the air conditioner is running, so hydrophilic aluminum foil has better performance. For hydrophilic aluminum foil, its performance is related to the pressure drop ratio while the pressure drop ratio is related to the hydrophilic angle, so the hydrophilic angle is also an important factor in determining material performance. The hydrophilic film will age and oxidize over time, and its hydrophilic performance will significantly decline, causing condensation water to be generated during the refrigeration process, forming water bridges between the aluminum foil fins, blocking the circulation air ducts, and causing the refrigeration effect to decline year by year. There are two types of hydrophilic aluminum foils: one is normal hydrophilic aluminum foil (blue), and the other is corrosion-resistant hydrophilic aluminum foil (gold). Normal hydrophilic aluminum foil is coated blue. This painted aluminum foil prevents condensation from forming water bridges. This blue hydrophilic aluminum foil is generally used in the production of small heat exchangers in daily environments. High corrosion resistance hydrophilic aluminum foil coated with gold color is an excellent solution for corrosion resistance. The main alloy grades of the large foil roll for air conditioner include 1100, 1200, 8011, etc. From a usage perspective, air conditioners do not have strict requirements on the chemical composition of aluminum heat exchange fins. Without surface treatment, 3A21 aluminum alloy has relatively good corrosion resistance, high mechanical properties such as strength and elongation, and high hardness.

9. Aluminum Strips for Sale Color coated aluminum strip It is an aluminum strip whose surface has been coated and colored. They are deep-processed products of aluminum and aluminum alloy strips. Because it has good flatness, corrosion resistance, decoration and mechanical properties, it is favored by the market and is widely used in architectural decoration, food packaging, electronic appliances, printing, transportation and other fields. The main two types of paint for color-coated aluminum strips are fluorocarbon (PVDF) and polyester (PE). It is mainly because there is a big difference in the cost of paint. Fluorocarbon paint contains fluorine, which has better weather resistance, longer service life, and higher price. In suspended ceilings made of mineral fiber panels, colored aluminum strip can enhance the decorative appearance of the ceiling support structure. This narrow and thin coated aluminum strip is often used to cover the surface of T-rails. You can make choices according to the RAL or Panton Colors.

10. Aluminum transformer strip The raw material of dry-type transformer aluminum strip is high-purity aluminum, which is rolled into thin aluminum coils of different thicknesses and widths by a cold rolling mill, and then longitudinally slit into aluminum transformer strips of different widths by a slitting machine according to the purpose. Polished Aluminum Strip Haomei polished aluminum strip are available in specifications ranging from 10mm to 1250mm in width. The reflectivity is over 85%. We can provide H18 hardness mirror aluminum strip, H24 bendable aluminum strip and HO aluminum mirror strip for the lampshade. Brushed Aluminum strip The wire drawing process refers to using sandpaper to repeatedly scrape the surface of the aluminum alloy until lines are scraped out. There are many types of wire drawing. Each line of the aluminum profile that has been brushed can be clearly seen on its surface. At the same time, the metallic matte of the aluminum profile product will show a fine hair luster, making the aluminum profile become more fashionable and technological. According to the different alloys contained in the aluminum strips for sale, the aluminum strips are also divided into 8 series. However, the currently commonly used series are 1000, 3000, 5000 and 8000 series. Basically, all grades of alloys can be processed into aluminum strips. Commonly used alloy grades include 1050, 1060, 1070, 1100, 3003, 3004, 5005, 5052, 8011, etc.
