Follow on Google News | Moisture Vapor Transmission and Moisture Barrier MaterialsMVTR is a measure of the passage of gaseous H2O through a barrier. Currently, the best barrier material on the market today has an MVTR of .02.
By: Protective Packaging MVTR stands for "Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (http://www.protectivepackaging.net/ How is moisture resistance measured? Moisture resistance is measured in a special chamber where it is divided vertically by the substrate/barrier material. A dry atmosphere is in one chamber, and a moist atmosphere is in the other. A 24-hour test is run to see how much moisture passes through the substrate/barrier from the "wet" chamber to the "dry" chamber. Standard test procedures (TAPPI T-464, ASTM E96) can specify any one of five combinations of temperature and humidity in the "wet" chamber. The toughest conditions are 100°F / 95%RH (Relative Humidity). Currently, the best barrier material on the market today has an MVTR of .02.
