What is PKMB?
PKMB, the full name is polycraft or polykraft. It is a special kraft paper laminated to the aluminum surface using heat laminated or adhesive laminated application to provide extra durability and resistance to abrasion and abrasion. Polykraft has light and matt to choose from. The light is more expensive, but there is a layer of PE film on the surface, which has better moisture-proof effect.
Classification of aluminum PKMB
Aluminum PKMB has two types based on surface treatment: smooth and stucco embossed.
Smooth
Smooth surfaces are more reflective of sunlight than stucco embossed surfaces. And it can drain rain well when it rains. But when it’s dirty and damaged, it’s easier for us to see.
Stucco embossed
An embossed surface increases its strength and ductility, extending its service life. At the same time, it is not easy to cause strong light reflection and has good visual effects. And hides dirt and damage better than smooth surfaces.
Processing technology of aluminum PKMB
Unlike PSMB, which has only one processing technology, PKMB has two processing technologies, one is the same heat laminated as PSMB, and the other is the adhesive laminated.
Heat laminated
Heat laminated is to apply hot glue on the aluminum plate and heat the film on the color coating line.
Adhesive laminated
Adhesive laminated is applied directly on the embossing machine, and the bonding effect is not as good as heat laminated.
Advantage of aluminum PKMB
- Heat preservation
- Moisture proof
- Long lasting
- High strength
- Good wear resistance
- Easy to install
- Anti-oxidation
Application of aluminum PKMB
It is mainly used in oil and gas pipelines and refineries. Therefore now our products are mainly exported to the Middle East, Russia, Central Asia, OPEC and other markets.
Compared with traditional aluminum
The use of PKMB has several significant advantages over traditional aluminum materials:
- Enhanced Strength and Durability: Through precise control of the powder metallurgy process, PKMB exhibits superior mechanical properties, including increased tensile strength and improved wear resistance. This makes it ideal for applications where durability is paramount, such as in automotive components and structural engineering.
- Lightweight Design: Despite its robustness, PKMB retains the inherent lightweight characteristic of aluminum. This makes it an attractive choice for industries seeking to reduce vehicle weight for enhanced fuel efficiency or to achieve weight savings in structural applications without compromising strength.
- Corrosion Resistance: Aluminum is naturally resistant to corrosion, and PKMB is no exception. However, by refining the powder metallurgy process, manufacturers can further enhance its corrosion resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments such as marine or chemical processing industries.
- Improve the thermal conductivity: High thermal conductivity aluminum has been fully confirmed, whereas PKMB further enhanced this feature. This makes it an excellent choice for heat exchangers, electronic cooling systems, and various other thermal management applications.
- Sustainability: PKMB usually comes from recycled aluminum, by reducing the demand for raw materials and transfer of landfill waste, contribute to sustainable development. Additionally, its lightweight nature can lead to energy savings during transportation and reduced carbon emissions.
