The Importance of Moisture Content and Viscosity for Food Packaging

Reduce defective molding! Quantifying moisture content and viscosity to contribute to hygiene management in food packaging.

In the food packaging industry, hygiene management is crucial to ensure product quality and safety. Particularly in plastic molding, the moisture content of the materials and the viscosity of the molten material significantly affect product quality. High moisture levels can lead to molding defects, increasing the risk of reduced product strength and foreign matter contamination. Changes in viscosity can also cause shape defects in molded products and lead to hygiene management issues. Our article presents the results of measuring the moisture content and viscosity of TPU pellets and evaluating their impact on molding. We hope this information will assist you in quality management for your food packaging. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Manufacturing of food packaging containers - Manufacturing of food packaging films - Manufacturing of packaging materials requiring hygiene management 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduction of molding defects - Improvement of product quality - Enhancement of hygiene management levels
