What is the specific weight of aluminum foil?

Answer:

The specific weight of aluminum foil is 2.7. Aluminum foil weight = thickness *2.7kg* area. For example, 0.05mm aluminum foil with 30 square meters, so the weight is =0.05*2.7*30=4.05kg.
The proportion of aluminum foil and aluminum ingot consistent, 2.7t/m^3, according to the material of aluminum foil will be slightly different
Aluminum foil because of its excellent characteristics, widely used in food, beverages, cigarettes, drugs, daily necessities, household photographic plate, usually used as packaging materials; electrolytic capacitor materials; thermal insulation materials for building, vehicle, ship and housing; also can be used as a decorative silver line, wallpaper and all kinds of stationery printing and light industry the decoration of trademark products. Among the various uses mentioned above, the most effective performance of aluminum foil is to be used as packaging material.

Aluminum foil is a metal aluminum directly rolled into sheets of hot stamping material, the effect of stamping and silver foil stamping similar effects, it is also called the false. Because of its soft texture and good ductility, it has a silvery luster. If the rolled sheet is made of sodium silicate on the offset paper, the foil can be printed. But the aluminum foil itself is easy to oxidize and the color is dull, friction, touch and so on will fade. Therefore, it is not suitable for the long-term preservation of books, covers and other hot stamping.
