EVOH Barrier film oxygen transmission rate testing

Oxygen transmission rate (OTR) is the measurement of the amount of oxygen gas that passes through a substance over a given period. It is mostly carried out on non-porous materials, where the mode of transport is diffusion, but there are a growing number of applications where the transmission rate also depends on flow through apertures of some description.

Product Detail

What affects the OTR of films



Good oxygen barrier is achieved by combining functional layers to create a film with the required barrier, as well as those other properties necessary to produce a serviceable package. For example, EVOH has exceptional OTR properties, but needs moisture barrier and mechanical properties provided by layers that are coextruded or laminated around it.



OTR is most affected by the following factors.



1. Thickness of barrier layer: Generally, the thicker the oxygen barrier-providing layer, the better the barrier. But there are process and cost limitations that restrict the thicknesses that can be realistically produced or successfully utilized.



2. Copolymer ratio, plasticizer content, and polymerization process: All PVdCs (or EVOHs or PVOHs) are not created equal. Properties are compromised during polymer and product development, so that total performance in target applications is optimized. There can be substantial differences in OTR values depending on the selections made. For example, both ASB-X and AXT are PVdC-coated and sealable, but their OTRs are 4.5 cc/100 in2/24 hr and .40 cc/1 00 in2/24 hr, respectively. ASB-X has the poorer OTR, but a broader seal range than AXT.



3. Base film surface compatibility: The physical and chemical characteristics of the base film surface have a major effect on the OTR after metallization, and to a lesser degree, after coating. This is evidenced by Met PET's exceptional barrier, as well as the difference in OTRs between various metallized OPP products (refer to Table 10).

It can be applied to packaging systems composed of vials, ampoules, Leakage detection of pre-filled needles, eye drop bottles, HDPE bottles, infusion bottles/bags and other pharmaceutical packaging, food packaging, and chemical industry packaging.   Test principle The host is connected to a sealed test chamber customized according to the sample. When performing the vacuum decay method test, the instrument evacuates the test chamber, and a pressure difference is formed inside and outside the sample. Under the action of the pressure, the gas/liquid in the sample enters the test chamber through the leak hole. The main engine uses the absolute pressure sensor and the differential pressure sensor to monitor the pressure change in the chamber to judge whether the sample leaks. When performing the pressure decay method test, the instrument fills the test chamber with a predetermined air pressure, and the gas in the test chamber enters the sample through the leak hole. The host uses absolute pressure sensors and differential pressure sensors to monitor the pressure changes in the chamber to determine whether the sample is leaking.   Standard ASTM F2338-2009(2013),  YY-T 0681.18-2020,  USP<1207.2>, ASTM F2095   Specification Item Technical Parameters Absolute pressure test range (0~300) kPa Differential pressure test range (-2~2) kPa Detection sensitivity 1~3 μm Balance/Test Time 1~3600 s Vacuum time 1~3600 s Set flow rate 0~3 mL/min Test system Dual Sensor Technology / Dual Cycle Test Test chamber  Customized according to samples Suitable for Vials, ampoules, prefilled needles, infusion bottles/bags, etc. Detection principle Vacuum Decay Method/ Pressure Decay Method Host size 495 mm*455 mm*280 mm Ambient temperature 20℃~30℃ Relative humidity Max 80%,no condensation Working power AC 220V, 50HZ   Features u Dual-Pressure Methods, to help solve testing difficulties The double combination of vacuum decay method and pressure decay method solves the problem of easy misjudgment and false negative for freeze-dried powder injections containing vacuum in the bottle using a single vacuum decay method.
