Labthink OX2/230 Oxygen Transmission Rate Tester is not only used for oxygen transmission rate testing for plastic film and aluminum foil, but also can be used for PET Bottle with special fixture.

Although caps and closures equate to only 0.5% to 6% of the total package, it is worthwhile to check their contribution to any oxygen ingress. This paper provides some ideas and guidelines regarding the testing of caps and closures with respect to their oxygen transmission rate contribution of the package.

Don’t worry, Labthink OX2/230 help you resolve all these problems.

Request more information to see how Labthink can help your organization with Oxygen Transmission Rate of PET Bottle.

Labthink OX2/230 Oxygen Transmission Rate Tester is professionally designed to measure oxygen transmission rate of aluminum foil and equipped with high precision oxygen sensor with a wide test range 0.01~65000cm3/m2·d.

This Oxygen Transmission Rate Tester conforms to ASTM D3985: At a selected temperature and humidity, a barrier film is sealed between a chamber containing oxygen and a chamber void of oxygen. A coulometric sensor measures the oxygen that is transmitted through the material.

Specimen Size: 108 mm x 108 mm with thickness no more than 3mm, of course, for some special specimen, customization is also available.

Request more information to see how Labthink can help your organization with Oxygen Transmission Rate of Aluminum Foil.

Oxygen Transmission Rate Instrument conforms to ASTM D3985, ASTM F2622, ASTM F1307, ASTM F1927, ISO 15105-2, JIS K7126-B, YBB 00082003 and GB/T 19789.

Oxygen Transmission Rate Instrument Principle
Oxygen flows in one side of the film, and nitrogen flows on the other side. The oxygen molecules permeate through the film and into the nitrogen side, and are then carried to the sensor by the flowing nitrogen. By analyzing the oxygen concentration measured by the sensor, oxygen transmission rate and other parameters can be calculated. As to packages, nitrogen flows inside the packages, and oxygen flows outside the packages.

Labthink XLW Series of tensile testers includes four types of auto tensile tester, XLW, XLW(PC), XLW(M) and XLW(B). All these testers have been equipped with puncture clamp for buty1 rubber plugs. Besides puncture function, these testers can test tensile and elongation, heat seal strength, tearing resistance and peeling resistance for flexible pharmaceutical packages, such as Al-foil, laminated film and PVC sheet for pharmaceutical purposes.

Besides pharmaceutical rubber closure puncture testing, Labthink also provides other testing items such as oxygen permeation quantity testing with PERME OX2/230 Oxygen Transmission Rate Test System, moisture permeation quantity testing with PERME W3/330 Water Vapor Transmission Rate Test System and leak and seal strength testing. Labthink is willing to have more and broader cooperation with pharmaceutical companies.
