Gas Permeation Kinetics. Applications on Tightness Problems of Food Packages
Abstract
Gas permeation kinetics are a valuable tool to describe and simulate the actual properties of packages with respect to tightness problems. The modelling of the headspace gas composition allows an integral view on the gas permeabilities and enables a comparison with specified permeability data of a package material. Oxygen consumption reactions can be taken into account which is helpful to identify less good package performances and the reasons for product quality decays.
