Abstract: Oxygen barrier performance is an important performance related to the quality and effectiveness of soft plastic packaging bags. It is an important basis for screening packaging materials. This paper uses aluminum-plastic composite film packaging bags for food packaging as test samples, using OX2/230 oxygen transmission rate. The test system tests the oxygen permeation of the sample as a whole, and introduces the test principle, test process, equipment parameters and scope of application, etc., which provides a reference for the enterprise to test the overall oxygen barrier performance of the soft plastic packaging bag. Key words: oxygen barrier performance, oxygen transmission, oxygen transmission rate test system, soft plastic packaging bags, food packaging, aluminum-plastic composite materials 1 , meaning The oxygen barrier property is expressed by the oxygen permeation amount, and the oxygen permeation amount of the soft plastic packaging bag is high, indicating that the oxygen barrier property is low, and the oxygen permeation amount is low, and the oxygen barrier property is high. At present, the samples for oxygen barrier performance test of packaging materials are mainly divided into film / sheet and container according to the form . Soft plastic bags are usually cut into thin film for testing. The oxygen permeation amount permeates the oxygen per unit area per unit area. The volume is convenient for research, comparison and quality control of the oxygen barrier properties of the material. To obtain the overall oxygen permeation of the package, the film test value is multiplied by the surface area of ​​the package, which will increase the error of the result, especially for Irregularly shaped packaging bags, such as stand-up pouches, folding pockets, nozzle pouches, etc., have greater errors due to the difficulty in calculating the area of ​​the pouch. In addition, for the surface of the packaging material which is prone to creases, pinholes, and enamel-resistant packaging materials, the amount of oxygen permeation in different parts of the packaging bag varies due to defects such as creases, and is derived from the oxygen permeation amount of the material. The overall oxygen barrier properties of the package are not accurate. Therefore, to evaluate the overall oxygen barrier properties of soft plastic bags, it is more accurate to directly test the overall oxygen transmission. 2 , testing basis Oxygen transmission amount of a test method is divided into equal-pressure method (Coulometry), two kinds of differential pressure method, currently published regarding the container, the method of standard test package oxygen barrier performance of GB / T 31354-2014 "Packaging The Coulometer test method for oxygen permeability test of containers and containers is tested according to the standard. 3 , test samples The test samples used in this paper are aluminum-plastic composite film bags for food packaging. 4 , testing equipment In this paper, the OX2/230 oxygen transmission rate test system is used as the testing equipment, which is independently developed and produced by Jinan Languang Electromechanical Technology Co., Ltd. Figure 1 OX2/230 oxygen transmission rate test system 4.1 Test principle The coulomb method is a detection method for quantitatively testing the oxygen permeated through the sample by using a coulomb counter. The method uses the difference in concentration as the motive force for oxygen permeation in the sample. The specific process is that the pressures on both sides of the sample remain equal during the test. One side of the sample is made of high-purity nitrogen as a carrier gas, and the other side is high-purity oxygen. After passing through the sample to the nitrogen side, the oxygen is carried by nitrogen to the coulometer for analysis, thereby obtaining the oxygen permeation amount of the sample. For the package and container, the outside of the sample is high-purity nitrogen, and the inside is high-purity oxygen. 4.2 Equipment parameters The test range of the container sample is 0.0001 ~ 60 cm 3 / (pkg · d) , the resolution is 0.00001 cm 3 / (pkg · d) ; the test range of the film sample is 0.01 ~ 6500 cm 3 / (m 2 · d) , the resolution is 0.001 cm 3 / (m 2 · d) ; can test three identical or different samples at the same time , the system can support the parallel connection of 10 instruments, and establish 30 samples simultaneously.
