1、Designation:B 479 06Standard Specification forAnnealed Aluminum and Aluminum-Alloy Foil for FlexibleBarrier,Food Contact,and Other Applications1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 479;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the
2、case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This specification covers annealed aluminum andaluminum-alloy foil containing 98.00%minimum
3、aluminumand in thicknesses 0.00025 in.(0.0064 mm)to,but notincluding,0.006 in.(0.15 mm).Alloys(see Note 1)covered bythis specification include,but are not limited to 1100,1145,1235,8011,8079,and 8111,which conform to the require-ments of 6.1 and Table 1.Unless otherwise specified by thepurchaser,the
4、 alloy to be supplied shall be left to the discretionof the producer.1.2 The foil is for use in packaging,which includes foodhandling and processing applications,requiring flexible barriermaterials,and other general applications.The foil may be usedas supplied or laminated to other materials,such as
5、 paper orplastic films.1.3 For acceptance criteria for inclusion of new aluminumand aluminum alloys in this specification,see Annex A1.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard.The SI values in parentheses are for informa-tion only.1.5 The following precautionary ca
