Permeability Characteristics

• Oxygen (ASTM 1927-98): 150 cc/m² d at 23^oC and 50%RH
• Carbon Dioxide (modulated IR Method): 1200 cc/m² d at 23^oC and 0%RH
• Water Vapor (ASTM F1249-01):
  Flat: 1 g/m² d at 38^oC and 90%RH
  Creased: same as flat
• Note: Because of low water permeability and the insensitivity of this material to moisture vapor, it is unlikely that differences in relative humidity will make a difference in the oxygen permeability.

Effects of Common Reagents

• Hydrochloric acid (5N) - No apparent effect in 24 hours
• Sulphuric acid (5N) - No apparent effect in 24 hours
• Nitric acid (5N) - No apparent effect in 24 hours
• Sodium hydroxide (22%) - No apparent effect in 24 hours
• Ammonium hydroxide (28% NH₃) - No apparent effect in 24 hours
• Potassium permanganate (5%) - No apparent effect except permanent dark brown coloration in 18 hours. (0.1%) - Same as 5% but slightly less color
• NaCl solution (20%) - No apparent effect in 24 hours
• Ethyl alcohol (95%) - No apparent effect except some face whitening in 24 hours
• Isopropyl alcohol (99%) - No apparent effect in 24 hours
• Not recommended for use with chlorinated, non-polar aliphatic and aromatic solvents.
