Comparison and Analysis of the Difference in Water Vapor Transmission Rate of Same Packaging Materials

Packaging materials for dry products, powder products, electronic products and other products sensitive to water vapor should have good moisture barrier performance, which is generally characterized by testing the water vapor transmission rate of packaging materials; packaging materials with high water vapor transmission rate have poor moisture barrier performance. Water vapor permeability refers to the mass of water vapor that permeates a unit area of a material in a specified time period. According to the [...]

Moisture Resistance Test of Blister Packaging

Blister packaging is a form of packaging which is made of transparent plastic sheet or aluminum plastic composite sheet with blisters and covered with aluminum foil. Because each blister is independent from others, one damaged blister will not affect the sealing of other blisters. Therefore, taking out the product in one blister will not affect the protective effect of blister packaging on other products. The advantages of blister packaging and the popularization of blister packaging [...]

Difference Analysis of Moisture Barrier Performance of Foamed Sponge Tested by Desiccant Method and Water Method

Water vapor permeability is an important performance index of the moisture barrier properties of materials. The measurement and research of water vapor permeability is an important link in the application of materials. The principle of cup method is one of the important principles for measuring the water vapor permeability of materials. It is also called the principle of gravimetric method. It calculates the water vapor permeability of materials according to the change of the weight [...]

Intelligent Measurement of Water Vapor Transmission Rate of Exterior Building Materials

Good waterproof is a basic property of exterior wall coatings for buildings. When there is a humidity difference between the two sides of the wall, water vapor will permeate through the wall from high humidity side to low humidity side, resulting in the moisture transfer in the wall. In addition, if the permeability of building materials is poor, the rain or snow water leak into the interior of the wall through the cracks, while the [...]

How to Test the Moisture Permeability of Sanitary Towel?

1. Significance Comfort and gas permeability of sanitary towel are two of the key research subjects for manufacturers, also selling points that may attract consumers. The main indicators of the sanitary towel’s comfort include the ability to absorb and block the liquid, quick-drying and breathability. Those properties vary by different materials of sanitary towels. Generally speaking, the structure of the sanitary towels has mainly three layers: the surface layer, the absorbent layer, and the bottom [...]

Effect of Temperature and Humidity on Water Vapor Transmission Rate of Packaging Materials

According to different uses, materials barrier properties of oxygen, water vapor, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, air and other gases are tested and expressed by the transmittance of the corresponding gas. Temperature and humidity are two important test parameters in the test of barrier performance. The change of temperature and humidity will affect the internal structure of materials and the movement ability of gas molecules, especially for water vapor permeability test, humidity is the drive for water [...]
