Evaluating Barrier Properties of Biodegradable Packaging Materials - 1

Labthink Instruments Co., Ltd. info@labthink.com +86-531-85068566 Evaluating Barrier Properties of Biodegradable Packaging Materials As the concern about white pollution and the importance of biodegradable plastics grows, needs for various tests to assess the water vapor and gas transmission properties of these materials is emerging. Starch-based biodegradable materials can be broken down by living things like bacteria and fungi in a natural way, turning them back into harmless components for the environment. Acknowledging the limitations of starch, such as moisture absorption and brittleness, many ongoing researches focus to improve the toughness, moisture resistance and machinability of biodegradable plastics. Labthink conducted experiment to measure the gas transmission rate and water vapor transmission rate of a full-starch biodegradable film. The test results show that the film has good oxygen barrier properties but poor water vapor barrier properties.
