Test method for water vapor permeability of meat pine PA composite membrane packaging

Abstract : The water content in the floss is relatively low, and it is easy to absorb the water vapor in the surrounding environment. Therefore, for the floss packing, it should have high moisture resistance and prevent the floss from getting mouldy and deterioration due to the increase of the moisture content. This article uses the W3/330 water vapor transmission rate test system independently researched and developed by Jinan Languang Electromechanical Technology Co., Ltd. to test the moisture resistance of the plastic composite film for meat pine packaging, and briefly describes the testing principle and the experimental operation process of the equipment. The detection of water vapor transmission rate of soft plastic packaging has certain guiding significance.

1 , the meaning

Floss is a traditional Chinese food of the Han nationality. It is made from lean meat such as pork, fish or chicken and duck meat. It is delicious and delicious and is very popular. The lower moisture content in the floss requires that the packaging material should have a low water vapor transmission rate, that is, the moisture resistance should be high, otherwise it will cause the meat floss to increase its internal moisture content due to contact with more moisture, giving the microorganisms The breeding provides a good matrix, causing agglomeration, mildew, and rancidity and other quality problems. Therefore, it is an effective way to reduce the probability of floss deterioration caused by packaging problems by strengthening the moisture vapor permeability test of meat floss packaging and strictly controlling the moisture resistance of the package.

2 , the status quo

At present, there are weighing methods ( cup method ) , electrolysis method, humidity method, and infrared method for measuring the water vapor transmission rate of soft plastic packaging in China. The standard methods that can be referred to are GB 1037-1988 “Plastic Films and Sheets. Test method for water vapor permeability of cups", GB/T 16928-1997 "Testing methods for moisture permeability of packaging materials ", GB/T 21529-2008 "Determination of water vapor transmission rate of plastic films and sheets - Electrolytic sensor method" , GB / T 30412-2013 "water vapor transmission rate of plastic film and sheet of the humidity sensor measurement method" (published 2014 December 1 embodiment).

This article uses the electrolytic method to test the water vapor transmission rate of pork floss packaging, based on the standard GB/T 21529-2008 "Determination of plastic film and sheet water vapor transmission rate - electrolytic sensor method."

4.1 Test principle

The device uses the principle of electrolytic sensor test. Nitrogen with a stable relative humidity flows on one side of the membrane. Dry nitrogen flows on the other side of the membrane. Due to the presence of a humidity gradient, water vapor diffuses through the test membrane from the high-humidity side. On the low-humidity side, on the low-humidity side, the transmitted water vapor is carried by the flowing dry nitrogen gas to the sensor, and when it enters the sensor, an electrical signal of the same proportion is generated. By analyzing and calculating the electrical signal of the sensor, the water vapor of the sample is obtained. Transmissibility and other parameters. If the test sample is a packaging container, dry nitrogen flows in the container and the outside of the container is in a highly humid state.

4.2 Scope of application

(1) This equipment is applicable to the testing of the water vapor transmission rate of packages such as films, sheets, paper, cardboard, composites, and containers. The films include various plastic films, plastic composite films, paper-plastic composite films, coextruded films, aluminized films, aluminum foils, aluminum foil composite films, glass fiber aluminum foil composite films, etc.; sheet materials including various engineering plastics, rubbers , sheet materials such as building materials, such as PP sheet, PVC sheet, PVDC sheet, etc.; paper, cardboard and composite materials including paper, cardboard, etc., such as cigarette pack aluminum paper, paper aluminum plastic composite sheet, etc.; Containers include water vapor permeability tests for bottles, bags, cans, boxes, and barrels made of plastic, rubber, paper, paper-plastic composite, glass, metal, etc., such as Coke bottles, peanut oil drums, Tetra Pak packaging, and vacuum. Packaging bags, metal packaging bags, metal three-piece cans, plastic cosmetic hose packaging, toothpaste hose packaging, jelly cups, etc.

In addition, through special configurations, the device can also be used for the testing of water vapour permeability of special packages such as pharmaceutical blisters, pharmaceutical plastic bottles, instant noodle bowls, paper cups, paper bowls, automobile fuel tanks, and battery plastic housings.

(2) This equipment complies with many national and international standards such as GB/T21529 , ISO15106-3 , DIN53122-2 , and YBB00092003 .

4.3 Equipment Parameters

Technical Rat Poison

Bromadiolone is a key active ingredient used in a number of special rodenticide bait products to treat for mice and rats. Unlike most rat poisons, which are slow-acting when it comes to their lethal effect, bromadiolone has the ability to kill rodents as quickly as within the span of 24 hours. As a technical material, bromadiolone is extremely toxic for many mammalian species.
