Aluminum (Al)	99.3 - 99.7	Base metal composition, critical for ductility and heat resistance
Iron (Fe)	≤ 0.35	Improves strength while limiting brittleness
Silicon (Si)	≤ 0.25	Enhances corrosion resistance
Copper (Cu)	≤ 0.05	Minimal amounts for strength adjustments
Manganese (Mn)	≤ 0.10	Helps attain corrosion resistance and adds strength
Magnesium (Mg)	≤ 0.05	Minor addition for improved mechanical properties
Other Metals	≤ 0.10	Trace impurities monitored within defined safe limits

Applications

The embossed aluminum foil with tamper evident features is ideal for use in packaging lines requiring:

Industry	Application Example
Pharmaceutical	Sealing blister packs, bottles containing syrups or suspensions PDE
Food & Beverage	Sealing bottled sauces, juices, and dairy products to maintain freshness
