Most of the drugs we can see on the market are sealed with aluminum foil. At this point, we may ask, what is the reason for using aluminum foil sealing for medicine bottles? Can't we replace it with plastic? 

Aluminum foil, also known as fake silver foil, is widely used in food and drug packaging due to its soft texture and good extensibility, which can be well utilized for printing and other purposes. 

Firstly, aluminum foil has excellent insulation properties. Due to its tightly packed molecular structure, it can block the invasion of moisture and has good moisture resistance, ensuring the dryness of drugs; Isolate oxygen to prevent the drug from reacting with other gases and altering the quality of the drug; Not only that, but it can also achieve the effect of avoiding light, because many drugs are sensitive to light. 

So it is required to be placed in a cool place, and using aluminum foil material can reduce the impact of light on drugs, which cannot be achieved by plastic materials. In addition, the sealing and sealing properties of plastic materials cannot reach those of aluminum foil. 

Secondly, aluminum foil material has high heat resistance because its sealing technology is processed by high-temperature sterilization, which meets the packaging standards of drugs; On the contrary, for plastic materials, it is difficult to achieve the first step of slitting technology because high temperatures in plastic may release toxic and harmful substances, which can contaminate the drug itself once used. 

The hygiene and safety of drugs are important considerations. Aluminum foil material is relatively safe, non-toxic and harmless, and is not affected by bacteria, which can maintain the safety of drugs for a long time; Its process has certain anti-counterfeiting and anti-theft functions. 

In addition, aluminum foil material has good corrosiveness and is generally not affected by corrosion and does not react with drugs. 

Aluminum foil conforms to the theme of contemporary environmental protection, so when packaging drugs, it is necessary to consider using environmentally friendly materials instead of plastic materials, strengthen the handling and utilization of drug packaging, and reduce environmental pollution. Aluminum foil is a recyclable material that can be reused. Moreover, the production cost of aluminum foil is low, so it is widely used and can provide people with an affordable price. 

It can be seen that the reason why aluminum foil is so popular in the pharmaceutical packaging industry is due to its excellent performance.
