Health food is a kind of food, in addition to the nature of food, but also can improve the human body function, but it can not replace the treatment of diseases used drugs.
Health food mostly in accordance with the human body needs nutrition ingredients, from natural plants, vegetables, fruits and dairy products and other substances to extract nutrients and made, some health food ingredients are easy to be oxidized or moisture absorption, so require its packaging should be very good to block the ability of oxygen and water vapor outside.
The packaging used for health food is mainly high barrier materials, mostly plastic or metal containers for packaging, which can not only protect the quality of content, but also achieve aesthetic requirements.
Health food packaged in metal bottles is easy to be oxidized and has a long shelf life. Therefore, the barrier property of metal bottles determines the quality and shelf life of health food.
How to evaluate the barrier of metal cylinder to external oxygen, it is necessary to use specific container oxygen transmittance test device to accurately test the cylinder body, low oxygen transmittance means high oxygen resistance of metal cylinder.
In this paper, the ox2/230 oxygen transmittance test system independently developed and produced by Labthink Languang is used to detect the oxygen transmittance of metal bottles, namely the barrier of the bottle body to external oxygen, which can provide technical reference for the related health food production industry.
