This paper reviewed the standardization course of aerosol cans packaging containers in China since its launch in 1991. The technology contents of the published national standards GB 13042 and GB/T 25164 and industry standard BB/T 0006 were analyzed, and the updates and improvements in standardization of aerosol cans packaging containers were resented, from the aspects such as aerosol can type, classification, specification, dimension, internal pressure resistance and detection technology. The development tendency of the aerosol cans standardization was: on one hand, the aerosol cans meet the increasingly diverse needs of aerosol industry, on the other hand, the safety of dangerous goods packaging is ensured and the situation of green packaging of material savings and reduction is reflected. In the process of deep involvement in international cooperation and competition, Chinese aerosol can manufacturing industry made significant progress in internationalization. We need to go further with international practice in standardization and lead the aerosol industry to a higher level.
