  • Method and device for characterizing osi material
    Patent number: 7579193
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for characterising OSI-materials provide for: introducing the material into a measurement cell; subjecting the material to a gas mixture containing oxygen; permitting a certain time or at certain time interval or intervals to elapse; measuring a defined volume part of the gas mixture with regard to its oxygen concentration using a measurement circuit, which together with the time component represents a characterisation of the OSI-material, wherein the OSI-material in the measurement cell is subjected to the gas mixture circulated in a closed reaction circuit, and the defined volume part is conveyed into a measurement circuit containing a gas, for the measurement of the oxygen concentration.
    Type: Grant

  • Multi-Layer Material, Especially for Packaging Oxygen-Sensitive Products
    Publication number: 20080008848
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multilayer material comprising at least the following sequence of layers: a) a gas-barrier layer based on EVOH; b) an adhesion-promoter layer based at least one anhydride-modified polymer; c) an oxygen-absorber layer composed of at least one polymeric, non- particulate oxygen absorber, where the total thickness of the adhesion-promoter layer(s) is preferably at least approximately 10 ?m, and also to a process for their production, and to their use.
