Aerosol valves are regarded as the heart of aerosols and have an extremely important impact on the quality and performance of aerosol products. As an important part of aerosol product, the valve directly affects the ejection effect of our entire product and the user experience effect. Then we are coming to the problem of "how to choose the right and quality aerosol valve and actuator for the aerosol products?".

Before discussing this point, we have to talk about the type of aerosol valve first.

What are Aerosol Valves?

The objective of the aerosol valve is to regulate the entrance/exit of a fluid or vapor to or from some source (Aerosol can, tank, container, etc.).  A specific sub-goal of the aerosol valve is to atomize the contents of the source so that it exits as a fine spray.

Because of its characteristic, aerosol valve is widely used in paint, grease, lacquer and other aerosol products. The valve can help it evenly sprayed on the product. In today's world, aerosol valves are a compact, portable, reliable and convenient addition that atomizes liquids into the hands of consumers at a very low cost.

Aerosol Valve Type on the Market

Aerosol valves are classified mainly by their structure, characteristics and functions.

1). Classified by the basic structure of the valve, which can be divided into male valve and female valve.

2). Classified by the use of the aerosol valve

Upright valves (including positive pressure and oblique push valve)

Suitable for: Stem fixed, mounting cup fixed and can fixed push actuator

Applications: household goods, pesticides, automotive goods, industrial goods, personal care products

Inverted valves

Suitable for: mounting cup fixed type inverted push actuator

Applications: hair mousse, road marking, carpet shampoo, dust mite killer

360° valve (also called Up/Down Valve)

The 360° valve sprays reliably regardless of whether the can is used upright or upside down;   this valve assures correct function and constant spray quality.   This type of valve can be filled with the existing filling equipment, no modifications or adaptations are required. 

Applications: automotive cleaners, CO2 based aerosols, road markers, lubricants, garden insecticides, nitrogen-based aerosols, etc.

3). Classified by the spray effect of the aeorosl valve, it is mainly divided into:

Dosing valve (each time the actuator is pressed, the aerosol can quantitatively release the contents according to the design requirements.

For the metering dosing valve

Principle: The volume of the valve is fixed by the special design of the valve stem and the size of the valve chamber to control the volume of spraying each time as the valve is pressed.

Applications: inhalers, air fresheners, pesticides, aromatherapy.

Continuous valve (press actuator mechanism to release inclusions continuously.)

4). Classified by aerosol valve seal cup size, these can be divided into the most common one-inch valves and 20 mm valves, as well as special 13 mm valves.

Quality Aerosol Valve should be Meet 4 Factors at Least as Following.

1). Aerosol valve should be reliably and effectively spray out the aerosol content, but also has good sealing performance in the closed state, so that the aerosol content does not leak out.

2). Aerosol valve has to withstand the erosion of various formulations and adapt to the high speed and high pressure filling performance of the production line.

3). Aerosol valve should have a certain degree of firmness and strength to withstand the high pressure in the can.

4). The quality of the components of the aerosol valve and the control of the fit between the components is crucial.

What the portable Gas Canister composed of?

The main component of portabe gas cannister is butane. It is widely used for indoor and outdoor food cooking, heating and barbecue because it is not limited by power supply, high caloric value when burning and no radiation. It is popular in hot pot restaurants, and ordinary families. Now, cassette gas is used in more fields, such as heaters, refrigerators, generators, industrial cutting and so on.

LPG is the most common camping fuel due to its portability, cost-effectiveness, safety and also burns cleanly. The smaller, more portable disposable butane gas canisters are perfect for hikers, or those who like to travel light. 

However, gas canisters require safe usage and handling.

Tips when you using portable butane gas!

1-No open flames;

2-The bnutane gas should be placed vertically with the air nozzle facing upward. Don't lay it sideways or upside down.

3-When the fire is lit, to open the valve to a minimum. If you hear any gas coming out. Don't open the valve too wide.

4-No open flames, all operations are done away from open flames.

What is an Insecticide Spray Can

Insecticide spray can, as a chemical insect killer, comes in an aerosol can that is sprayed into the air to kill flies. Iinsecticide sprays will kill various insects such as house flies and wasps.

Insecticide spray is dangerous to pets as well as fish and should be used with caution. Like many insecticides, fly spray can be toxic to a host of other organisms including birds, fish, beneficial insects, and non-target plants.

Ingredients for Pesticides

Insecticide spray contains chemicals (including many organophosphate compounds) that bind to and permanently block the action of an enzyme called acetylcholinesterase. Acetyl choline (ACh) is the nerve transmitter substance released by motor neurones (at a site called the neuromuscular junction) to stimulate muscle contraction. The muscles relax (stop contracting) when the ACh is removed from the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) by the action of acetylcholinesterase. By inhibiting the cholinesterase the insect can no longer break down ACh in the NMJ and so its muscles lock up in a state of tetany (continuous contraction) making flying and respiration impossible, and the insect then dies of asphyxiation.

Aerosol insecticide brand recommended

• Pyramid insecticide aerosol
• Phantom aerosol insecticide II
• Bedlam plus insecticide aerosol
• Cb 80 insecticide aerosol
• Pyranha aerosol insecticide
• Alpine pt insecticide aerosol

Most of insecticide sprays have a pungent smell, the formula is also somewhat toxic because it is used to kill some flies. When we choose the packing material, we have to consider the materials leak-proofness and corrosion resistance. That's the safety afectors we have to ensure.

Tinplate as a widely used aerosol packaging material in the market, especially for three pieces aerosol cans. It not only meets the cost of insecticide spray, but also has better sealing and corrosion resistance.

As long as you look carefully, there are many aerosol products in our daily life, such as spray paints, cleaners, insect sprays, cooking sprays and deodorants. Recycling an empty spray can may be as simple as throwing it into your curbside recycling bin. Recycling an entire can may require a trip to a local household hazardous waste facility. But no matter what condition your jar is in, it can be recycled.

But before we can recycle, we need to clear up a few things.

What are aerosol cans?

Today, aerosol cans are made of either steel or aluminum. They have a plastic spray top and a plastic lid, and may contain a small piece of metal to help mix the product when the can is shaken. Inside the can is a liquid or gas that shoots out at a high rate of speed thanks to a chemical used as a propellant. In the past, chlorofluorocarbons (also known as CFCs) were the most common propellant. When people realized CFCs were one of the primary gases destroying the ozone layer, they were banned in most countries and aerosol can manufacturers were forced to find another propellant. Today, food products use carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide as propellants, while others use propane or butane as the propellant. CFCs in very small quantities are still approved for a few uses, including asthma inhalers.

Why should I recycle aerosol cans?

You should recycle an empty aerosol can because the metal is fully recyclable and can be put back to use as new products. However, you should absolutely not recycle a can that is not empty because it can explode. Aerosol cans with even a little paint or bug spray still contain some of that propellant, and they can blow up under pressure, injuring sanitation workers or damaging equipment. In addition, insecticides and other dangerous chemicals left in the can need to be disposed of in a way that will not hurt the environment.

How to recycle aerosol cans?

If possible, use up all the material in your can. Empty aerosol cans are treated like any other type of steel or aluminum can. The process for recycling full aerosol cans is simple. Using special equipment punches a hole in the can and allows any remaining liquid to drain out. The liquid is kept in a secure container so it can be disposed of properly. The empty metal can is sent to a metal recycler. Your task is to get that full can to someone qualified to recycle it. In most cases, that recycler will be your community's household hazardous waste center. Be sure and check with your local program to determine its hours, fees and if it has limits on the quantity of material it will accept at any given time.

Tinplate is a metal material, its outer layer is plated with a layer of tin, also known as tinplate, because its outer layer is plated with a layer of tin, so it is also called tin-plated iron.

The liquid in the aerosol spray can is formed by applying pressure to a certain gas with a gas compressor. The pressure inside the aerosol can is much higher than the outside air, so the sprayer sprays a white aerosol, all nanoscale.

If you want to withstand high pressure items, the hardness of the tank must be very high, otherwise it is easy to deform or even explode. Therefore, when choosing packaging, metal materials are the most suitable, such as stainless steel or tinplate.

Stainless steel aerosol cans compared to tinplate cans and see why tinplate cans are almost used. I believe everyone is very familiar with stainless steel, it is strong and will not rust! It has a particularly long lifespan on the packaging, which is a good choice, but it also has its drawbacks, which is that it is too expensive! What about tin cans? The same is true of iron cans, which are not only hard, but also do not rust. It has strong scalability and can be used to make various shapes of aerosol cans, such as round cans, squares, balls, cans, etc., which are readily available and can meet your various needs. In addition, in the metal packaging industry, the price of tinplate cans is also the cheapest. The price of the iron teapot itself is also cheaper than that of aluminum aerosol can and stainless steel. You can compare the prices of aluminum teapots, stainless steel teapots, and tinplate teapots.

In general, tinplate aerosol can have the advantages of strong rigidity, opaqueness, good sealing performance, no rust, green environmental protection, and recyclability.

As environmental awareness grows globally, single-use plastic containers are facing increasing restrictions and demand for alternatives. Sugarcane food containers are emerging as a popular and eco-friendly solution, offering biodegradability, cost efficiency, and practicality. These containers are paving the way for a more sustainable lifestyle.

 

Benefits of Sugarcane Food Containers

1.  Environmentally Friendly and Biodegradable: Sugarcane containers decompose naturally, typically within 30 to 90 days, returning to the soil without harming water sources or ecosystems.

2.  Heat and Water Resistant: These containers withstand temperatures up to 120°C (248°F), making them suitable for hot food and beverages.   They’re also water-resistant, ideal for holding soups and liquids.

3.  Durable and Reliable: Despite being plant-based, sugarcane containers are strong and resilient, suitable for carrying heavier food items without bending or breaking.

4.  Cost-Effective: Bagasse is a low-cost, readily available resource, and processing it into containers is relatively simple.   This cost-effectiveness gives sugarcane containers a competitive edge, making them a feasible alternative to plastic and foam.

 

 

The Production Process of Sugarcane Containers

Sugarcane containers are made through an environmentally conscious production process. First, the bagasse is cleaned and pulped, then molded into various container shapes. This process minimizes harmful emissions, especially compared to conventional plastic production, resulting in a significantly lower carbon footprint.

 

Applications of Sugarcane Food Containers

The versatility of sugarcane containers makes them suitable across a range of industries:

- Restaurants and Takeout Services: Their high heat resistance and microwave safety make sugarcane containers ideal for takeout food.

What Are Sugarcane Cups?

 

Sugarcane cups are made from a byproduct of sugarcane processing called bagasse. After the juice is extracted from the cane, what remains is this fibrous residue. For centuries, bagasse was considered waste. Now, it has found new life as a raw material for eco-friendly products like cups, plates, and containers.

 

Bagasse is rich in cellulose, which makes it perfect for molding into sturdy, durable items. When treated with heat and pressure, it forms a strong, lightweight material that is both water and grease resistant. This makes sugarcane cups ideal for serving both hot and cold beverages, rivaling traditional plastic and paper cups in functionality, but without the environmental downsides.

 

Why Choose Sugarcane Cups?

 

1.  Renewable Resource:

Sugarcane is a fast-growing crop that can be harvested multiple times a year, making it a highly sustainable raw material.  Unlike fossil fuels used in plastic production, sugarcane regrows quickly, reducing environmental impact.

 

2.  Biodegradable and Compostable:

One of the greatest advantages of sugarcane cups is their ability to biodegrade naturally.  In a commercial composting facility, these cups break down completely within 60 to 90 days. Even in home composting systems, they decompose much faster than plastic or styrofoam, reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfills or oceans.

 

3.  Lower Carbon Footprint:

The production of sugarcane cups has a lower carbon footprint compared to plastic production. By using agricultural waste (bagasse), sugarcane cup manufacturers avoid the need for new raw material extraction. Additionally, the process of converting bagasse into products like cups is less energy-intensive than producing petrochemical-based plastics.

 

4.  Safe for Hot and Cold Beverages:

Sugarcane cups are sturdy and resistant to moisture, making them suitable for all types of drinks. Unlike some biodegradable options that degrade with heat, sugarcane cups maintain their structure with hot beverages, offering a versatile and reliable choice for cafes, restaurants, and events.

 

5.  No Harmful Chemicals:

Many conventional plastic cups contain harmful chemicals like BPA (bisphenol A), which can leach into beverages.  Sugarcane cups, on the other hand, are chemical-free, making them a safer option for consumers and the environment.

 

Applications of Sugarcane Cups

 

The versatility of sugarcane cups has made them popular across a variety of sectors:

 

- Cafés and Restaurants: More eateries are opting for eco-friendly packaging to align with the growing demand for sustainability. Sugarcane cups are perfect for takeout coffee, juices, and smoothies.

 

- Events and Festivals: Large-scale events are often heavy users of disposable products. By switching to sugarcane cups, event organizers can significantly reduce waste and create a more environmentally responsible experience.

 

- Corporate and Educational Institutions: Businesses and schools striving to be more sustainable are introducing sugarcane cups in their cafeterias, vending machines, and events.

 

The Future of Sugarcane Cups

 

The increasing demand for sustainable packaging is driving more innovation in the bioplastics and eco-friendly product sectors.  As consumers grow more aware of the environmental impact of their purchases, sugarcane cups represent an exciting opportunity to shift away from wasteful, single-use plastics.

 

As technology advances, the production processes for sugarcane-based products will continue to improve, making them even more affordable and widely available. Already, major cities and countries are considering or implementing bans on plastic cups and packaging, making alternatives like sugarcane cups not just a choice, but a necessity.
