ASTM D6701 Standard Test Method for Determining Water Vapor Transmission Rates over Nonwoven and Plastic Barriers

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM D6701 testing. This test method covers a procedure for determining the water vapor transmission rate of non-woven and plastic barrier materials ranging from 500 to 100.000 g/m² per day. The method is applicable to films, barriers composed of single or multilayer synthetic or natural polymers, nonwoven fabric and nonwoven fabrics coated with films up to 3 mm (0,1 inch) thick.

ASTM D6701 Standard Test Method for Determining Water Vapor Transmission Rates over Nonwoven and Plastic Barriers

The purpose of this test method is to obtain values ​​for the WVTR of barrier materials. WVTR is an important property of materials and may be related to shelf life. This test method allows the determination of water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) and water vapor permeability.

Values ​​stated in SI units will be accepted as standard. Values ​​in parentheses are for informational purposes only.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.

This international standard has been developed in accordance with the internationally accepted principles of standardization set out in the Resolution on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guidelines and Recommendations published by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
