The present invention relates to an aluminum foil or sheet product, and more particularly to an aluminum foil or sheet product having a non-directional white surface (hereinafter simply referred to as an aluminum product unless otherwise required) and a method for producing the same. It is well known that the surface of aluminum products becomes directional with respect to light reflection due to forming operations such as rolling. It is also known that a white satin surface can be obtained by etching the above product. However, the conventional satin finish treatment using etching treatment liquids cannot completely eliminate the above-mentioned directionality, and has the drawback that there is a difference in light reflectivity in the rolling direction and in a direction perpendicular to this, and the surface The whiteness of the film is still unsatisfactory. The present inventors have conducted various studies with the aim of eliminating the drawbacks of the above-mentioned conventional techniques and obtaining an aluminum product that is non-directional and exhibits an excellent white surface. As a result, especially as an aluminum material,
Select aluminum containing a predetermined amount of Fe, which is an alloying element harmful to photovolatility, or at least one impurity selected from Mn, Ti, and Cr, and immerse it in a bath with a specific composition. It has been found that when processed, a product is obtained with unprecedented non-directionality and an excellent white surface. The present invention was completed based on this new knowledge. That is, in the present invention, Fe is contained in an amount of 0.7 to 2.0% by weight or 0.5 to 2.0% by weight.
% by weight and 0.5 to 2.0% by weight of at least one selected from Mn, Ti, and Cr, and has a non-directional white surface with an L value of 80 or more and a directionality (△L) of 5 or less. An aluminum product characterized by having the above-mentioned aluminum material, and the above-mentioned aluminum material characterized by being immersed in a non-crawling treatment solution containing 0.2 to 30% by weight of hydrogen fluoride and 5 to 60% by weight of nitric acid or orthophosphoric acid. Relating to a method for manufacturing aluminum products with oriented white surfaces. In the present invention, the L value means the brightness (whiteness) of the product surface measured by the 45° diffusion method (45° method). This is, for example, a direct color measurement color difference computer (model CDE-SCH) manufactured by Suga Test Instruments Co., Ltd.
−4A). The larger the L value, the richer the whiteness. Directivity (△L) is the above L value in the rolling direction of the material,
It is expressed by the difference between the above-mentioned L value in the direction and the perpendicular direction, and the smaller the L value, the less the directionality. The aluminum product of the present invention is made of a specific aluminum material as described above, and is characterized by its surface having remarkable non-directionality and whiteness. Until now, no aluminum product with a surface having such excellent non-directionality and whiteness has been known. Therefore, the product of the present invention is extremely useful in foil or sheet form as display materials such as printed circuit boards and nameplates, packaging materials, container materials, etc., and can also be advantageously used for decorative purposes etc. in the form of various other molded products. can. In particular, the whiteness of the product of the present invention is due to the uniform distribution of countless microscopic mortar-like pits produced by etching, so the product does not change its color tone and has excellent heat resistance and resistance. It also has excellent wear resistance. The product of the present invention having the excellent surface described above is manufactured by immersing an aluminum material containing an alloying element of a specific composition in a treatment liquid of a specific composition. The aluminum used as the material above is Fe0.7
-2.0% by weight, preferably 1.0-2.0% by weight, or 0.5-2.0% by weight of Fe and 0.5-2.0% by weight of at least one selected from Mn, Ti, and Cr. Only then can a product with desired surface properties be obtained by immersion treatment with a treatment solution of a specific composition. With other ordinary aluminum materials, such as those that do not contain the above-mentioned specific alloying elements or those that contain them in amounts outside the above ranges, the desired surface characteristics cannot be imparted even by the above-mentioned dipping treatment. In addition, the above immersion treatment includes 0.2 to 30% by weight of HF, preferably 3 to 10% by weight, and 5 to 60% of HNO 3 or H 3 PO 4
It is important that the treatment is carried out using a non-crawling treatment liquid containing 10 to 30% by weight, and by using this treatment liquid, the desired effect of the present invention can be achieved. However, conventionally known etching solutions such as NaOH-NaF solutions cannot produce such effects. In addition, the above-mentioned processing liquid must not contain chloro (Cl) components, and if it contains chlorine (Cl) components, HF-HNO 3 (or H 3 PO 4 )
Even if the composition is adjusted within the above range, the desired effect of the present invention will not be achieved. The treatment of the aluminum material with the above-mentioned specific treatment liquid of the present invention is carried out by simply immersing the above-mentioned material in the above-mentioned treatment liquid for an appropriate time, and this immersion may be carried out by ordinary means such as coating or spraying. The temperature conditions during the above treatment can be determined as appropriate depending on the concentration of each component constituting the treatment liquid, the type of material to be treated, the immersion time, the degree of surface properties required for the product obtained, etc. Although not limited, the temperature is usually about 10 to 70°C, preferably 20 to 50°C. When a particularly low temperature condition within the above range is adopted, the whiteness is further improved, and when a high temperature condition is adopted, there is a tendency that the directionality may be lost while retaining the gloss of the material as much as possible. The immersion time can be appropriately determined according to the above-mentioned temperature conditions, and usually about 20 to 100 seconds is sufficient to obtain a product with desired surface properties. Examples and comparative examples are given below to explain the present invention in more detail. Example 1 An aluminum specimen (100 μ x 300 x 300 mm (H 24 ), extremely rough surface, foil obtained according to a normal foil manufacturing process) containing 1.5% by weight of Fe was treated with hydrogen fluoride ( The sample was immersed in a treatment solution containing 5% by weight of HF) and 18% by weight of nitric acid (HNO 3 ) at 30° C. for 30 seconds. The L values in the rolling direction and in the direction perpendicular to the rolling direction of the specimen treated as above were determined to be 90 and 88, respectively. The L values of the sample aluminum pieces before treatment were 68 and 30, respectively. Example 2 Fe0.6% by weight and Mn as an aluminum specimen,
Aluminum containing 0.5% by weight of Ti and Cr (Fe0.6,
Contains Mn0.2, Ti0.15, Cr0.15wt%, foil obtained by normal foil manufacturing process, 100μ x 300 x 300mm
(H 24 ), extremely rough surface roughness) was treated in the same manner as in Example 1, and its L value was measured. The results were 90 in the rolling direction and 87 in the direction perpendicular to it, which was a marked improvement compared to those before treatment (68 and 30, respectively). Comparative example 1 1100 according to JISH4000 as an aluminum specimen
(containing 0.4 wt% Fe) was treated in the same manner as in Example 1. Comparative Examples 2 to 4 The same specimens as in Examples 1 and 2 above, and
Each aluminum specimen of JISH4000−3003,
It was treated by immersing it in an etching solution containing 5% by weight of NaOH and 2% by weight of NaF at 70°C for 30 seconds. Table 1 below shows the results of determining the L values in the rolling direction and in the direction perpendicular to the rolling direction of the aluminum products obtained in each of the above Examples and Comparative Examples.

[Table] As is clear from the above Table 1, when a specific aluminum material is treated with a specific treatment solution according to the present invention, a product having significantly superior whiteness and non-directionality can be obtained. On the other hand, as shown in Comparative Example 1, other aluminum materials are not significantly improved in whiteness and non-directionality even when treated with the same treatment liquid. Furthermore, even though the same aluminum material is used, when it is treated with a different treatment liquid, as shown in Comparative Examples 2 and 3, the whiteness and non-directionality are not improved. Of course, it can be seen that the effects of the present invention are not exhibited similarly when other materials are treated with other treatment liquids (Comparative Example 4). Comparative Example 5 The aluminum specimen was treated in the same manner as in Example 1, using a specimen of AA5056 (a wrought material containing 0.4 wt % Fe) which had been ground-treated in a conventional manner. The L value of the treated product in the rolling direction was 72, and the L value in the direction perpendicular to this was 65. The L value of the aluminum specimen before etching treatment was 54 in the rolling direction and 49 in the direction perpendicular to this.
