KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 30 (Bernama) -- Tokyo-based Nippon Kinzoku Co Ltd, a stainless steel rolling and processing provider for the automotive, battery, semiconductor and other markets, announced its stainless steel wide width foil’s surface is available in two types of finishes.
In a statement, Nippon Kinzoku said it offered two types of finishes of its stainless steel foil, namely "BS: Bright Surface" and "WS: White Surface", to meet the needs for surface design and functionality.
Additionally, its stainless steel foil features high precision, wide width and large unit weight, contributing to customers' productivity improvement, yield improvement and process reduction.
Nippon Kinzoku’s stainless steel wide width foil features applications that include surface heating elements used in automobiles, flexible printed circuit (FPC) reinforcement plates, and metal masks used in electronic devices, and is used as composite materials with films, among others attached.
In particular, there are few material manufacturers that produce materials with a thickness of less than 30 micrometres and a width of nearly 600 millimetres, contributing to improved processing yields and productivity.
Furthermore, the company met various requirements for surface texture depending on the application. For instance, in tact switch applications, there is concern about cracking due to minute surface irregularities during repeated use.
In such cases, Nippon Kinzoku recommends a Bright surface with a smooth surface, which contributes to improved durability, while for the exterior of rechargeable batteries and connectors, on the contrary, it recommends a rougher White surface, which contributes to improved adhesion with adhesives (exterior of rechargeable batteries) and visibility of laser engraving on the product surface (connectors).
