| MOCON AQUATRAN Model 1, a new, ultra high-barrier water vapor permeation test instrument. What makes this unit different from any other water vapor permeation test
instrument on the market is that it offers significant improvement by offering ten times
the measurement sensitivity. The AQUATRAN Model 1 makes it possible to accurately measure water vapor transmission rates down to 0.0005 g/m2 per day under varying temperature conditions.(Conventional units typically only measure to 0.005 g/m2 per day.)
This makes the AQUATRAN Model 1 ideally suited as a measurement
instrument for new, commercial or developmental ultra high-barrier structures. These
structures are being engineered to push the barrier envelope. Therefore, accurate and
extremely sensitive instrumentation is necessary to build performance statistics.
The unit is ideally suited for developers, manufacturers or converters of ultra
high-barrier films, as well as packagers using them to help extend product shelf life.
In addition to food and pharmaceutical applications, these ultra high-barrier films
are also used in the manufacture of Organic Light Emitting Displays (OLED).
MOCON is a leading provider of instrumentation and consulting and laboratory
services to medical, pharmaceutical, food and other industries worldwide. |
