PVC film aluminum blister packaging is a widely used material for packaging pharmaceuticals and consumer products, particularly suitable for protecting and displaying tablets, capsules, and other dosage forms.
PVC film, medical PVC hard sheet, is one of the most commonly used and cost-effective materials for pharmaceutical packaging. The material has excellent thermoforming properties and comes in a variety of colors, making it the preferred choice for medications with lower barrier requirements.
Features of PVC Film Aluminium Blister
- Durability: PVC material has high durability, effectively protecting contents from external environmental influences.
- Transparency: The transparent PVC film allows clear visibility of the products inside the packaging, helping to enhance consumer purchasing desire.
- Uniform thickness: The uniform thickness of the PVC film ensures the strength and consistency of the blister.
- Impact resistance: PVC has good impact resistance, helping to prevent packaging breakage.
- Easy forming: PVC material is easy to process and form, suitable for various complex packaging shapes.
- Excellent sealing performance: PVC blisters have good sealing performance, effectively preventing moisture and contaminants from entering the packaging, maintaining product freshness and efficacy.
Advantages of Alu PVC Blister Packaging
Advantages | Description |
Cost-effectiveness | Aluminum-plastic blister packaging uses plastic materials, reducing production costs and making it a more cost-effective option for pharmaceutical packaging. |
Visibility | Aluminum-plastic packaging allows the drugs in the blister cavity to be clearly visible, enabling consumers to check the integrity of the product and verify the dosage before use. |
Customization Flexibility | Aluminum-plastic blister packaging offers greater flexibility in customization; PVC blister cavities are easy to form, accommodating various shapes and sizes of products. |
Limitations of Alu PVC Blister Packaging
Limitations | Description |
Barrier Performance | Although aluminum-PVC packaging provides reasonable protection, its barrier performance may not match that of aluminum-aluminum packaging. |
Fragility | The plastic material makes aluminum-PVC blister cavities more susceptible to impact damage during handling, transport, or storage. |
Thermal Stability | PVC material has poor thermal stability, making strict temperature control particularly important during blister forming and heat sealing stages. |
Transparency | While the transparency of PVC materials provides good product visibility, it may not be ideal for light-sensitive drugs. |
Environmental Impact | PVC is not easily biodegradable, and improperly disposed PVC blister packaging may lead to environmental issues. |
Applications of PVC Film Aluminium Blisters
1. Pharmaceutical Packaging
PVC film aluminum blisters play a crucial role in pharmaceutical packaging. They are primarily used for:
Blister packaging for tablets, capsules, and pills: The transparency of PVC film allows consumers to clearly see the medication, increasing its acceptability. The design of the blisters ensures that the drugs are protected from external contamination while being moisture- and oxidation-resistant, thus maintaining their stability and efficacy.
Safety: The impact resistance and sealing performance of PVC material can prevent damage to medications during transport and storage, ensuring their safety.
2. Oral Liquid Bottle Trays
In the packaging of oral liquid medications, PVC film aluminum blisters are used to:
Support and protect oral liquid medication bottles: By providing a sturdy tray, PVC film can effectively support the bottles, preventing them from tipping over or breaking during transport.
Sealing: The sealing of the PVC film with the bottle opening can prevent external contamination, ensuring the purity and effectiveness of the medication.
3. Food Packaging
In the food industry, the applications of PVC film aluminum blisters include:
Packaging suitable for certain foods: Such as pre-packaged foods and health-related food products, PVC film can effectively isolate oxygen and moisture, keeping food fresh.
Safety: PVC materials comply with food safety standards, ensuring that the packaging materials do not release harmful substances when in contact with food.
4. E-cigarette Blister Packaging
With the development of the e-cigarette market, PVC film aluminum blister packaging has become increasingly common:
Widely used in the packaging of e-cigarette products: This packaging form not only provides good protection but also displays the product's appearance, attracting consumers.
Protective and Display Effects: PVC blisters have good transparency and formability, effectively showcasing the design and branding of the e-cigarettes while protecting them from external influences.
