Air Permeability Tester TQD-G1

What is Air Permeability?

Air Permeability is a resistance of fabrics (woven, knitted and non woven textile materials) to the passage of air under constant pre-set air pressure. Air permeability is an important property of some textile materials. The air permeability is mainly dependent upon fabric's weight and construction (thickness and porosity).

Labthink TQD-G1 Air Permeability Tester is professionally applicable to the determination of air permeability of decorating materials used in cars, e.g. polyurethane, expanded plastics, PVC, leather, textiles, non-woven and other materials.

TQD-G1 Air Permeability Tester conforms to the multiple international standards:

ISO 4638 - Polymeric materials, cellular flexible -- Determination of air flow permeability
ISO 5636 - Paper and board -- Determination of air permeance and air resistance
ISO 9237 - Textiles -- Determination of the permeability of fabrics to air
ASTM D737 - Standard Test Method for Air Permeability of Textile Fabrics
TAPPI T460 - Air Resistance of Paper (Gurley Method)

Air Permeability Tester Priciple:

Method A
Providing a constant air flux going through the specimen vertically, the air permeability could be obtained by measuring the pressure difference.
Method B
Providing the constant pressure difference between two sides of the specimen, the air permeability could be obtained by measuring the air flux through specific area in the certain time.

Air Permeability Tester Technical Specifications:

Test Range of Pressure: 0 ~ 1 KPa
Test Range of Flux: 0 ~ 1800 L/h
Specimen Size: Method A: 52 mm x 52 mm, Method B:Φ12 mm ≤ D(diameter) ≤ Φ71 mm

Quality Requirements of Lithium Ion Battery Separators

Business Challenge Lithium-ion batteries have one of the best energy-to-weight ratios, no memory effect, and a slow loss of charge when not in use. This makes them one of the most popular types of batteries for portable consumer electronics in today’s marketplace. Lithium-ion batteries can be found in cameras, laptops, power tools, toys and more. However, as recent well-publicized recalls demonstrate, they can pose a risk of fire and overheating. In addition, they can suffer from a reduced lifespan if not properly treated. As a result, new and stricter requirements are being implemented globally to address potential hazards, leaving manufacturers and purchasers of products containing lithium-ion batteries to meet increasing requirements and overcome safety concerns. Lithium Ion Battery Separators A Lithium Ion battery Separator is a permeable membrane placed between the anode and cathode of a battery. The main function of a separator is to keep the positive and negative electr...

Comparative Analysis of Aluminum-Coated VMPET and VMBOPP Oxygen Transmission Properties

Aluminum-coated films offer a cost-effective alternative to pure aluminum foil for packaging applications requiring good barrier properties. However, the effectiveness of these films can vary depending on the substrate material used. This study investigates the Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR) of VMPET (vapor-deposited aluminum on PET) and VMBOPP (vapor-deposited aluminum on BOPP) to assess the influence of the substrate on barrier performance. The OTR test employed the coulometric method (equal pressure) following the standard ASTM D3985. This method utilizes a controlled environment chamber to measure the rate of oxygen permeation through the film sample. Labthink C230H Oxygen Transmission Rate Test System was used for this study. This instrument is designed and manufactured based on the coulometric sensor method (aka. equal pressure method) and conforms to ASTM D3985. This instrument can be used to measure the oxygen transmission rate of barrier materials with high and medium barrier ...

Introducing Vacuum Decay Testing Method for Pharmaceutical Packaging Integrity

Maintaining the integrity of pharmaceutical packaging is fundamentally essential for safeguarding product efficacy and patient safety, and vacuum decay testing stands as a highly reliable non-destructive method for verifying this integrity. This technique, particularly effective for blister packs, vials, and pre-filled syringes, identifies leaks without compromising product sterility or efficacy. Vacuum decay testing leverages the principle that a sealed package, when subjected to a vacuum, will exhibit predictable pressure changes if it's leak-free. Conversely, a leaking package will show a different pressure profile. Specific Vacuum Decay Techniques: Differential Pressure Transducers: These precise sensors measure the difference in pressure between the vacuum chamber and a reference chamber. This allows for detection of very small leaks. Absolute Pressure Sensors: These sensors measure the absolute pressure within the vacuum chamber, providing data to determine the rate of pres...
