Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate Tester(MVTR Tester)

W402  MVTR Testing Machine  

 

Functions

To test the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of packaging materials, such as plastic film, composite film, coextrusion film, aluminum-plated film, aluminum foil, infusion bag, sheets, paper, paper board, solar battery panel, cellophane, ceramics and porcelain, and various containers such as bag, pouch, bottle, can, bowl, and box. It is widely used in the industries of food, pharmaceuticals, personal care, household, electronics and so on and institutions of quality control, drug inspection and science research.

 

Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate Tester(MVTR Tester)

Application :

* Films
Rigid films, shrik films, stretch films, plastic films, plastic composite films, paper-plastic composite films,aluminized films, aluminum foil, aluminum composite films, high barrier films and many others. Eg. PET, OPP, CPP, LDPE, BOPP

* Sheet

*Packages
Paper, plastics, rubber,paper-plastic composite, glass, and metal packages, eg: bottles, containers

 

Working principle

Infrared detection sensor method. Fix the test sample in the middle of test chamber to separate the chamber into upper room and lower room. When humid gas flows in upper room and dry gas in lower room, the water molecules in upper room penetrate through the sample into the dry gas, and electrolytic sensor system detect and analyze the water content and calculate the water vapor transmission rate. To test container, humid gas is outside and dry gas is inside of the container.
