Tropická blisterová fólia a za studena tvarovaná blisterová fólia sú oba medicínske obalové materiály, všeobecne označované ako tropický hliník a studený hliník. Bežne používané hliníkové kovy sú 1000 séria 8000 séria (8011 8021), although both of them are used for pharmaceutical packaging, but they are very different in material.

Tropical aluminum is a composite of nylon and pure aluminum. The cold aluminum is made of nylon, čistý hliník, and pvc. PA/AL is also compounded with adhesive. AL needs to be coated with adhesive (VC) to be heat-sealed with PVC, so tropical aluminum is also expressed as PA/AL/VC. The medicine is packaged into: PA/AL + PVC + PTP, and the medicine is between the PVC bubble and PTP.

Cold aluminum: Each layer is compounded with adhesive, and the structure is PA/AL/PVC. When using, the PVC layer is heat-sealed with the adhesive (VC) on the PTP; the medicine packaging method is: PA/AL/PVC + PTP, and the medicine is between the PA/AL/PVC foam and the PTP.

The biggest difference between the two is that tropical aluminum is used for heat sealing with pvc, while cold aluminum is directly used for charging.
