AI Overview
A Water Vapor Transmission Rate (WVTR) machine measures the amount of water vapor passing through barrier materials (films, packaging,, plastics) over time to test moisture resistance. Common methods include infrared sensors (ASTM F1249) or gravimetric cup methods (ASTM E96). These machines are crucial for quality control in food, pharmaceutical, and electronic packaging industries.
Key Types of WVTR Machines
- Infrared Sensor Method (e.g., Labthink C301H, MOCON AQUATRAN 3/34): These offer high sensitivity and fast results by measuring moisture concentration via infrared sensors, often used for high-barrier films.
- Gravimetric/Cup Method (e.g., Thwing-Albert EZ-cup, Labthink W3/062): These weigh a cup containing a desiccant and the sample over time to determine moisture gain, adhering to ASTM E96 standards.
- Electrolytic Sensor Method: Suitable for extremely low permeability tests, often used to determine the exact barrier performance of specialized materials.
Key Features and Capabilities
- Testing Flexibility: Capable of testing flexible films, sheets, plastics, and finished containers (bottles, bags).
- Environmental Control:
