Water Vapor Transmission of Laminate Film for CS Packages Uno M. Nagoya Univ.
Dec 19, 2015
CS need keeping wet for refresh.But laminate film may not be enough.
CS package film:PET 15μm/Al 7μm/PE 60μm
Al is originally perfect against water vapor.
But Al foil has pinhole (~ 10/m2).
And the face of seal part isn’t covered with Al.
So we have to check.
Set UpSize; 12.5×10cm2 (opera
emulsion)
Contents; sample cotton wool+water (2g) reference cotton
20 packages for each type
Storage environment; 40˚C(Yamato Program Incubator IN61)
—watching the change of weight of these packages.
Weigh these packages Electronic Balance
(AND FA-200)
max = 210g
min scale = 0.001g
—weighing Al cluster every time to check the state of the balance.
—These changes are so small that I weigh 20 packages at the same time.
