Web Processing for Barrier
Coming soon is the AIMCAL training course on 'Web processing for Barrier' below are some more details.
This course provides an overview of the technologies that can be applied to deliver barrier materials for markets such as food packaging, display, and photovoltaic (solar) applications. Initial discussion focuses on the fundamentals of diffusion and permeation to provide an understanding of the contributions and limitations of materials and processes. Advanced topics include newer technologies such as nanotechnology, scavengers, and indicators that result in "smart" materials.
