How to Reduce Oil Stain on Aluminium Foil Sheet Surface

Oil stain on the aluminium foil sheet surface refers to the phenomenon of excessive oil on the surface of finished aluminum tapes. The oil can be observed by the naked eye during slitting and finished product inspection, and usually contains extra alien oil different from rolling oil film. The oil stain has a serious negative effect on the surface of aluminum foil. Most finished aluminum foils will be further processed into decorative or packing products, which have high requirement about cleanness of the surface.
