Abstract: A cell for measuring the permeation of a target gas through a sample includes upstream and downstream chambers connected by an opening, a primary seal in contact with the bottom of the upstream chamber and surrounding the opening, and a removable sample holder and means for assembling the sample holder in the cell. Upper and lower frames included in the sample holder are each provided with a through opening. The sample holder includes means for assembling the sample in the sample holder and a first seal flush with the front surface of the lower frame, and surrounding the through opening of the lower frame. In the lower frame of the sample holder, a second seal is flush with the front surface of the lower frame, surrounding the through opening of the lower frame, and being surrounded with the first seal, and a second channel emerging between the two secondary seals.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring permeation of gases through a material comprising the following steps: a) Supplying gas to a permeation enclosure (10) during which a first chamber (11) is supplied with a target gas flow comprising at least one target gas corresponding to a gas for which one tries to determine the permeation through the material (M), and simultaneous supplying gas to a measurement enclosure (20) with at least one calibrated flow comprising at least one reference gas different from the target gas; b) during the gas supply step, measuring in the measurement enclosure (20) the reference gas present at instant (t) and the target gas present at the same instant (t) after having crossed the material (M) by permeation; c) calculating a correction factor at instant (t) by comparing the measurement of the reference gas present at instant (t) with the reference gas supply calibrated flow; and d) determining the permeation of the material (M) to said gas, from the measurement of the ta
