DIN 53380-4 Testing of Plastics - Determination of Gas Transmission Rate - Carbon Dioxide Specific Infrared Absorption Method

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of DIN 53380-4 test. DIN 53380-4 is part of the DIN 53380 series of standards and focuses on the determination of the gas transmission rate of plastic films and plastic molds using the infrared absorption method specific to carbon dioxide. This standard outlines a specific test procedure and methodology for measuring the rate of penetration of carbon dioxide gas into plastic materials such as films and moulds.

DIN 53380-4 Testing of Plastics - Determination of Gas Transmission Rate - Carbon Dioxide Specific Infrared Absorption Method

The main purpose of DIN 53380-4 is to determine the gas transmission rate of plastic materials, especially for carbon dioxide. This method measures the ability of plastic materials to allow carbon dioxide gas to pass through them under certain test conditions.

The standard specifies the use of the carbon dioxide-specific infrared absorption method to perform these measurements. In this method, the plastic material is exposed to a known concentration of carbon dioxide gas and the change in carbon dioxide concentration on the other side of the material is measured using the infrared absorption technique. This change is used to calculate the carbon dioxide gas transfer rate.

DIN 53380-4 provides detailed information on test conditions, including temperature, humidity and other test-related factors. These conditions may vary depending on the specific requirements of the test and the type of material being tested.

The standard may include guidelines for calibrating equipment used for testing and ensuring the quality and accuracy of test results.

This standard is important in industries where controlling the transmission of carbon dioxide gas through plastic materials is vital, for example in the packaging industry where it is necessary to maintain the quality and shelf life of certain products, especially foodstuffs.
