The invention discloses an aluminum foil for a capacitor anode and a production method, relating to a metallurgical technology and belonging to the production technical category of aluminum plates, aluminum strips and aluminum foils. The invention particularly relates to manufacture of the aluminum foil, in particular to manufacture of the aluminum foil for a low voltage electrolytic capacitor anode by using a cast-rolling method. In the invention, excessive dissolution can not be generated, corrosion pits are uniformly generated with high density and the face expansion ratio is increased in the process of electrochemical corrosion by controlling the purity of Al and the content of each element i.e. Cu, Fe, Si, Mg, B, Ti, Ni, Zn, Cr and V, thereby increasing the electrostatic capacity after corrosion; and cold rolling plates with uniform components and uniform tissue structures can be directly provided by adopting the cast-rolling method, thereby saving the necessary component uniformization and soaking treatment before a conventional hot rolling method, shortening a production procedure, lowering the energy consumption and enhancing the finished product rate, therefore, the prepared aluminum foil can satisfy the performance requirement of the low voltage electrolytic capacitor anode and can also save the energy for subsequent corrosion processing.
