Description:
CPI requires a method to measure water vapour permeability of barrier materials used in packaging, including multilayers, to control water vapour passage under different conditions.
CPI have identified a need for the ability to measure water vapour permeability of barrier materials used in the packaging industry. These barrier materials maybe free standing, individual or complex multilayers of thin films of polymers, papers, coatings, or combinations of materials designed to control the passage water vapour under refrigerated and ambient conditions. The desire is to be able to be able to measure multiple samples in parallel.
