Test Principle
The pre-conditioned specimen is mounted in the test cell as to form a sealed barrier between two chambers. The lower-pressure chamber (lower chamber) is firstly evacuated, followed by the evacuation of the entire cell. A flow of gas is thereafter introduced into the evacuated higher-pressure chamber (upper chamber) and a constant pressure (adjustable) difference is generated between the two chambers. The gas permeates through the specimen from higher pressure side into the lower pressure side. The gas permeability and other barrier properties of the specimen can be obtained by analyzing the pressure changes in the lower chamber.

FAQ's of Packaging Material organic gas permeation rate Tester for Ensuring Cosmetic Shelf Life:
Q: How does the Organic Gas Permeation Rate Tester measure the barrier properties of cosmetic packaging materials?
A: The tester utilizes a high-sensitivity organic gas sensor to monitor and quantify the transmission rate of gases such as O2, CO2, and VOCs through packaging materials. The sample is secured in the stainless steel test chamber, and clean, dry compressed air or test gases are introduced. The sensor detects any permeation and displays digital results on the touchscreen interface.
Q: What calibration process does the instrument use to maintain testing accuracy?
A: The tester features an automatic calibration method, using standard gases to regularly adjust sensor sensitivity. This process ensures ongoing accuracy, with an impressively low margin of error of 1% of reading for all measurements.
Q: When should I perform routine maintenance or recalibration on the permeation tester?
A: Routine maintenance is limited, due to its auto-calibration feature. However, it's advisable to check accessories such as sealing rings and perform calibration tool verification after intensive testing sequences or when results show subtle deviations, ensuring consistent accuracy.
Q: Where is the data stored, and how can I export test results?
A: All test data is saved in the instrument's internal memory, and reports can be seamlessly exported via USB flash drive or RS232 interface. This allows for efficient archiving, analysis, and regulatory reporting.
Q: What is the typical sample size and how many specimens can be tested simultaneously?
A: The tester accommodates standard specimen sizes of 50 mm in diameter, with support for custom dimensions if needed. It can simultaneously test 1 to 3 samples, enhancing throughput and efficiency for batch quality control.
Q: How does the alarm system benefit cosmetic packaging testing?
A: The built-in alarms for leak detection and over-limit gas permeation immediately notify users of any anomalies, helping prevent compromised test runs, and ensuring only packaging with proper barrier properties is approved for cosmetic shelf life.
Q: What are the primary advantages of using this tester for cosmetic packaging material analysis?
A: The instrument offers rapid, automated data collection, precise detection, compliance with industry standards, user-friendly operation, and robust construction, making it an essential tool for manufacturers ensuring optimal product protection and shelf life for cosmetics.
