QC Testing of Polymer Materials to Ensure Business Success

Routine quality control (QC) testing of polymer and packaging barrier properties, throughout the film-to-package production process, is important to ensure final package quality.

Ongoing permeation testing for quality control purposes helps to ensure product consistency over time and contribute to business success. Various tests, including barrier permeation tests, should be carried out along each step of the manufacturing process, from film production to converting, to packaging, to shipping. This article will review a few scenarios to consider.
