- The main equipment used is a Permeability Test Apparatus, typically employing the "cup method" consist of
- Test Cells/Dishes: Non-corroding containers where the material sample is sealed over an opening,
- Controlled Environment Chamber: A chamber that maintains precise and consistent temperature and humidity or specific gas concentration levels during the test and specific relative humidity for water vapor.
- Weighing Appliance (Balance): A high-precision balance used for periodic measurements of the test assembly's weight change over time in the gravimetric method.
- The test cell is kept in a dry atmosphere of carbon dioxide/air at (23 ± 2)°C and weighed at regular intervals. The carbon dioxide permeability is calculated from the mass gain. The determination is complete when a steady state is reached, that is, the mass increase does not change with time.
