From Manual Operation to Automated Loss on Drying Testing- Transforming Laboratory Efficiency with Labthink C870M and C870H

Traditional Loss on Drying testing requires operators to manually transfer samples between drying equipment and analytical balances.

During this process, temperature changes, humidity variations, and handling differences may affect measurement stability and final results.

The Labthink C870 Integrated Loss on Drying Testing System, including C870M and C870H models, is designed to overcome these challenges by integrating drying, cooling, weighing, and calculation into one automated workflow.

The system adopts a dual-chamber independent structure,separating the drying chamber from the weighing chamber.

This design minimizes thermal influence on the precision balance and improves measurement stability.

During testing, the instrument automatically performs sample handling, drying, cooling, and weighing without continuous operator intervention.

By reducing repetitive manual operations, the C870 series helps laboratories improve efficiency, minimize operator variation, and achieve more consistent test results.

Comprehensive Quality Control for Stretch Wrap Film Performance

Image
Stretch wrap film has become an indispensable packaging solution globally, used to tightly secure goods for efficient transportation and reliable storage. Its versatility stems from its unique properties: lightweight yet strong, highly elastic, self-adhesive, and capable of conforming to any shape without damaging the contents. Produced through advanced cast film extrusion processes, these films boast excellent tensile performance, tear and puncture resistance, high transparency, superior self-adhesiveness, and impressive retraction rates, ensuring packages remain compact and secure. From chemical raw materials and food products to electromechanical goods and textiles, stretch wrap film provides crucial protection, with specialized types like PE (eco-friendly) and PVC (specific uses) catering to diverse needs. The Imperative of Quality Control Given its critical role in safeguarding products throughout the supply chain, the consistent quality of stretch wrap film is paramount. Manufa...

Case Study: Oxygen Barrier Properties of Recycled PET Bottles

Image
Recycling plastic bottles is vital for environmental protection, but it can affect their oxygen barrier properties, making them less suitable for oxygen-sensitive products. Our case study on PET bottles with varying amounts of recycled material found that increasing the recycled content from 25% to 50% only slightly reduced their oxygen barrier. This suggests that using more recycled material does not significantly compromise the bottles' performance. The Problem The growing trend of recycling waste plastic bottles requires an understanding of how reclaimed materials affect a product's performance. For PET bottles, a crucial metric is their ability to act as an oxygen barrier. High oxygen permeability can compromise the quality of packaged goods, limiting the use of recycled materials in food and beverage containers. This study aims to quantify that effect by testing bottles with varying percentages of recycled content. The Test Two types of PET bottle samples were tested...

How to Test Oxygen Permeability of Food Packaging According to ASTM D3985 Standard

Image
  How to Test Oxygen Permeability of Food Packaging According to ASTM D3985 Standard   Oxygen transmission rate is a crucial indicator for evaluating the barrier properties of packaging materials. For food packaging, excellent oxygen barrier performance is essential to ensure food safety and effectively extend shelf life. ASTM D3985, "Standard Test Method for Oxygen Gas Transmission Rate Through Plastic Film and Sheeting Using a Coulometric Sensor," is a standard test method that employs the coulometric sensor principle to measure the oxygen transmission rate of plastic films, sheeting, laminates, paper-plastic composites, plastic-coated fabrics, and similar materials. This evaluation helps determine the packaging material's ability to block oxygen, ensuring food remains unaffected by oxygen throughout its shelf life. Understanding the Coulometric Sensor Method The coulometric sensor method involves clamping the test specimen (the food packaging material) into a per...
