Versaperm Vapour Permeability measurement

Paper Permeability

 

Paper Permeability



Water vapour permeability is the most important characteristic of any paper, every paper's permeability must be right for its purpose. The paper for packaging cheese requires a very different permeability from the paper permeability of a paper that you don't want to jam up a printer. The vapour permeability required depends entirely on the use of the paper. The Versaperm MK VI water vapour permeability meter is ideal for measuring all paper types.

Vapour permeability measurementA Paper's permeability is the measure of how strongly it can resist the passage of a gas - usually water vapour but it could be an other gas such as Oxygen, CO2, Nitrogen or even a hydrocarbon.  Vapour permeability dramatically affects the physical characteristics of paper including strength, printability, durability and paper handling(so that it doesn't jam in a machine)
