What are the classifications and specifications of air conditioning aluminum foil?

The heat exchanger is one of the key components of the air conditioner, which is mainly used to realize the heat exchange between the indoor air and the refrigerant in the air conditioning system pipeline. Air conditioning aluminum foil is a special material for manufacturing heat exchanger fins for air conditioners.

◆ The commonly used alloys of air conditioning aluminum foil are 1100 aluminum foil, 3102 aluminum foil, 8011 aluminum foil, 8006 aluminum foil, commonly used tempers are O, H22, H24, H26, thickness range 0.09-0.20mm, width range 100-1300mm. 

◆ Commonly used air conditioning aluminum foils include plain aluminum foil and hydrophilic aluminum foil, which have the advantages of low density, good thermal conductivity, easy processing, odorless, environmentally friendly, and low price, meeting the selection standards of air conditioning heat exchanger sheets.

What is air conditioning aluminum foil?

Air conditioning aluminum foil is a special material for manufacturing heat exchanger fins for air conditioners, and the air conditioning plain aluminum foil used in the early days. In order to improve the surface performance of plain aluminum foil, an anti-corrosion inorganic coating and a hydrophilic organic coating are applied before forming to form an air conditioning hydrophilic aluminum foil. There is also a hydrophobic aluminum foil that makes the fin surface hydrophobic to prevent condensed water from sticking.

Air conditioning aluminum foil is a highly efficient thermal insulation material, usually used for radiators and condensers in air conditioning systems. It has excellent thermal insulation and anti-corrosion properties, and can effectively reduce the energy consumption and maintenance costs of air conditioning systems.

The main function of air conditioning aluminum foil is to prevent the conduction and radiation of heat energy, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of air conditioning systems. It can effectively prevent heat from being conducted to the air through the metal surfaces of radiators and condensers, while reducing the loss of heat through radiation. This can reduce the workload of the air conditioning system, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs.

Air conditioning aluminum foil also has an anti-corrosion effect, which can effectively prevent the metal parts in the air conditioning system from being corroded by air, water vapor and chemicals. It can form an effective barrier to prevent the metal parts of the air conditioning system from being corroded and oxidized, extend its service life, and reduce the frequency of maintenance and replacement.

What are the classifications of air conditioning aluminum foil?

Due to its different performance, it is mainly divided into two categories: plain aluminum foil and hydrophilic coated aluminum foil:

◎Plain aluminum foil for air conditioner refers to aluminum foil that has been rolled and annealed without any surface treatment. It is mainly used in low-end split air conditioner outdoor units and window units. At present, about 50% of the heat exchanger sheets used are still non-coated aluminum foil.

◎Hydrophilic coated aluminum foil for air conditioner refers to a deep-processed aluminum foil product with an anti-corrosion coating and a hydrophilic coating applied on plain aluminum foil. The surface of hydrophilic coated aluminum foil has strong hydrophilicity. When used on air conditioners, it can optimize the ventilation effect of the heat exchanger, thereby increasing the heat exchange rate by 5%. In addition, hydrophilic coated aluminum foil also has other advantages such as anti-corrosion, anti-mildew, and no odor. It is mainly used in mid-to-high-end and export air conditioners.
