Moisture resistance is vital for the lifespan and performance of electronic devices. Thermal conductive silica gel pads fill gaps between heat sources and radiators, but their water vapor barrier properties can impact how much moisture reaches the electronics. The test follows ISO 15106-3:2003, which uses an electrolytic sensor method to determine water vapor transmissio...

Many shrink film types exist (PE, POF, etc.) used for packaging a wide variety of products. Different products require films with specific shrink performance (shrink rate, shrinking force, contracting force) for optimal packaging. Poor shrink performance can lead to loose or crushed products. The most widely used test methods measuring shrink performance are oil bath, dr...

Aluminum coated film is popular for instant noodle packaging because it's affordable and protects from light. But its effectiveness can vary depending on how it's made. Here, researchers compared the oxygen barrier properties of three different films from various manufacturers. The study adopted a manometric method to measures how much oxygen can pass through the film ov...
