Tests to Optimize Rosin Jointing and Barrier Properties in Multi-Chamber Infusion Bags


Keywords: Multi-chamber infusion bag, rosin jointing, barrier properties, medical packaging


Multi-chamber infusion bags are a new type of packaging that is gaining popularity in the medical field. They address the limitations of traditional glass bottles and single-chamber plastic bags. These chambers can hold different medications separately until they are ready to be mixed for use. This design offers several advantages, including:

  • Improved safety: By keeping medications separated until use, the risk of contamination and instability is reduced.
  • Easier and more accurate medication dispensing
  • Reduced risk of errors during mixing
  • Better suitability for emergencies






There are some key considerations in Multi-chamber Infusion Bag Production. First of all, rosin jointing. This is the sealing technique used to connect the chambers. It must be strong enough to prevent leakage before use but weak enough to allow for easy opening by medical personnel. The swelling test of the whole bag is a more useful method to assess the sealing performance of rosin joints compared to the tensile strength test.






Labthink C660M Leak and Seal Strength Tester is professionally applicable to quantitative determination of seal strength, seal quality, burst pressure, seal integrity, compression resistance, torsion force and joint/disengaging force of various flexible packages, aseptic packages, plastic tamper-evident closures, flexible tubes, caps and other materials.


Barrier properties are also crucial to multi-chamber infusion bag. The bag material should have good barrier properties to protect the medication from factors such as oxygen and water vapor that can cause deterioration. While the current standards do not require testing the oxygen permeation rate of the bag itself, this is still an important factor to consider for choosing packaging materials.




Labthink C406H Oxygen /Water Vapor Transmission Rate Test System is based on the testing principle of Coulometric oxygen sensor and infrared water vapor sensor. It conforms to ASTM D3985、ASTM F1249,ISO 15106-2 and other standards to provide high precision and efficiency oxygen and water vapor transmission rate tests for high barrier materials. It is suitable for testing the oxygen and water vapor transmission performance of films, sheets and related materials in the fields of food, medicine, medical devices and many others.


In conclusion, multi-chamber infusion bags are a promising development in medical packaging. They offer several advantages over traditional options and can help to improve the safety and convenience of infusion treatments.

Moisture Resistance Testing of Thermal Conductive Silica Gel Pads

Thermal conductive silica gel pads, crucial components in electronic devices, require effective moisture resistance to ensure optimal performance and longevity. This article delves into a comprehensive testing method for evaluating the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of these pads. Electronic components are sensitive to moisture, which can lead to corrosion, short circuits, and reduced reliability. Thermal conductive silica gel pads, often used to facilitate heat dissipation between electronic chips and radiators, play a vital role in preventing moisture ingress. Their moisture resistance properties directly impact the protection of sensitive internal components. The electrolytic sensor method, a widely recognized standard, is employed to measure the WVTR of thermal conductive silica gel pads. This technique involves creating a controlled environment with a high humidity chamber on one side and a low humidity chamber on the other. A sample of the thermal conductive silica gel pad ...

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...

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...
