How to distinguish indoor and outdoor aluminum veneer

 

There are many types of aluminum veneer products, and different products have different application scenarios and functions. From the perspective of application scenarios, it can be roughly divided into two situations. One is that it can be used for outdoor decoration. Second, aluminum veneers can be used for interior decoration. Why do aluminum veneer manufacturers distinguish between indoor and outdoor aluminum veneers? How do consumers distinguish whether the aluminum veneer products they purchase are for indoor or outdoor use?

Aluminum veneer products face different environments indoors and outdoors. , the needs for testing are also different. As we all know, the outdoor environment is much worse than the indoor environment. The outdoor temperature changes very greatly. Compared with the outdoors, the indoor temperature changes are relatively small. Outdoors are exposed to sunlight, rain, dew, etc. for a long time. Occasionally, Encounter severe weather, such as acid rain, salt spray, coastal areas, typhoons, thunderstorms, etc. This requires that the aluminum veneer products used outdoors have very good performance and can handle these harsh environments calmly, but it is different indoors, and the indoor environment is hardly affected by these factors, so the two products are also different. .

It is precisely because of the different internal and external environments that these two products have different performances.

1. From the perspective of thickness, outdoor aluminum veneers require stronger pressure resistance, so they are generally thicker and have better stiffness and hardness. The middle part of the aluminum veneer is pressed by hand, which is very easily transformed. Indoor aluminum veneers do not require such a large pressure resistance, so the thickness is generally relatively thin, which can not only achieve the decorative effect, but also save raw materials and decoration costs.

2. The outdoor aluminum veneers currently on the market are generally fluorocarbon aluminum veneers, with fluorocarbon paint sprayed on the surface. The corrosion resistance of fluorocarbon aluminum panels is very good. Heat resistance is also outstanding. Good weather resistance allows fluorocarbon aluminum veneer to be used outdoors for a long time.

3. Outdoor aluminum veneers can be distinguished through the xylene test. The solution is dripped onto the surface of the aluminum plate. If the bottom is exposed, it is an outdoor aluminum plate.
