You develop or use technical films or packaging and want to carry out a study of oxygen or nitrogen permeability
Do you develop or use technical films, packaging, or multilayer materials? Controlling their gas permeability is essential to ensure the stability, protection, or preservation of your products.
In the packaging industry, high-performance polymer materials are widely used for their excellent barrier properties against gas permeability, especially oxygen (O₂) and water vapor. These performance characteristics are mainly linked to their multilayer structure, which combines several types of polymers with complementary properties.
Why measure the oxygen or nitrogen permeability of films?
Whether in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, or materials sector, barrier films play a key role in the protection of the finished product. Their ability to limit gas exchange is directly linked to the quality, durability, and safety of what you package or protect.
Analyzing a film’s permeability to a gas (oxygen or nitrogen) is a critical parameter in many sectors:
To ensure the sterility and stability of devices or medicines
To protect oxygen-sensitive formulations
To qualify barrier films or study polymer formulations
Analyzing a film’s permeability to oxygen or nitrogen first and foremost makes it possible to validate a formulation or barrier material, by ensuring that it meets the expected performance requirements.
It is also a valuable tool for comparing several production batches or different suppliers, in order to guarantee consistent quality.
If there is any doubt or defect, this analysis makes it possible to detect a performance anomaly or a manufacturing drift.
Finally, it makes it possible to meet regulatory or standards requirements imposed in certain sensitive industrial sectors.
