Gas Transmission Rate Measurement System offers high sensitivity.

Press Release Summary:




Employing automatic analysis software, GTms-1 series can measure gas transmission rate of high-barrier films used for such flexible devices as organic EL panel or electronic paper. System uses Standard Conductance Unit to offer absolutely corrected measurement data. Minimum measurement sensitivity is 10-6g /m²/day or less for water vapor and 10-2cc/ m²/day or less for oxygen. Via use of mass spectrometer, other gases, such as O2 or N2, as well as water vapor are available.

ADVANCE RIKO Launches Gas Transmission Rate Measurement System 'GTms-1 series'



Yokohama, Japan – ADVANCE RIKO, Inc. has developed Gas Transmission Rate Measurement System, 'GTms-1 series' that can measure gas transmission rate of high-barrier films used for flexible devices like organic EL panel or electronic paper. Its sale will start in September, 2015.



Background

Gas barrier films have been widely used as packaging for food and drink or sealing of electronic device. Among others, high-barrier films are increasingly popular to be used for flexible devices like organic EL panel or electronic paper. Gas transmission rate of these high-barrier films needs to be 10-6 g/m2/day or less, which is extremely difficult to measure as absolute amount.



By mounting Standard Conductance Unit developed by AIST (National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology), ADVANCE RIKO has created a gas transmission rate measurement system that measures absolute amount of transmission rate with high sensitivity.



Features

- By the use of Standard Conductance Unit, absolutely-corrected measurement data is available.

- Transmission rate of water vapor: 10-6g /m2/day or less; Transmission rate of oxygen: 10-2cc/ m2/day or less

- By the use of a mass spectrometer, other gases like O2 or N2 as well as water vapor are available.

- Automatic-analysis software enables to analyze the data easily.



Applications

Useful for sealing films of various electronic devices below:

- Organic EL panel, liquid crystal display

- Organic solar cell, a-Si solar cell

- Electronic paper

- Packaging for food, chemical, electronic parts

- Materials to prevent transmission of various gases like (O2, N2, CO2, H2, etc.)



Specifications

- Number of samples, dimension: 1pc, 120mm in diameter

- Temperature range: 40 degrees Celsius (standard)

*It is possible to measure up to the temperature limit of the sample.

- Minimum measurement sensitivity: Water vapor: 10-6g /m2/day or less; Oxygen: 10-2cc/m2/day or less

- Measurable gas: Water vapor, Oxygen, Nitrogen etc.

- Detecting method: Quadrupole mass spectrometer

- Vacuum exhaust system: Turbo molecular pump, Rotary pump



Utilities

- System size: 1010mm(W) x 688mm(D) x 1680mm(H)

- Power requirement: AC 100V, single phase, approx.3.0kVA

- Grounding: D type

- Compressed air: Nitrogen for vent, Compressed air
