What is Water Vapor Transmission and Why is it Important?
Water vapor transmission is a test that measures the ability of moisture to pass through evaporation, especially in leather materials. This test is important for determining the comfort and duration of use of leather materials. In the USB Certification laboratory, we perform water vapor transmission in accordance with TS EN ISO 21420:2020 and TS EN ISO 14268:2023 standards.
What are TS EN ISO 21420:2020 and TS EN ISO 14268:2023 Standards?
These standards define internationally recognized methods for measuring the water vapor transmission of leather materials. These standards evaluate the performance of leather materials to ensure moisture management during the use of protective equipment such as gloves. By conducting tests in our laboratory in accordance with these standards, you can be sure that your products meet safety and comfort standards.
Importance of Water Vapor Transmission Tests
Water vapor transmission tests determine the ability of leather materials to manage moisture and provide comfort under harsh conditions. These tests help to ensure that your products meet the requirements of CE certification processes and also give your products a competitive advantage in the market.
Importance in terms of Environment and Area of Use
Water vapor transmission is vital, especially for gloves and leather materials used in high humidity environments. Determining the water vapor transmission of your products ensures their safe and effective use in a variety of industrial applications.
Water Vapor Transmission Test Process in Our Laboratory
In our laboratory, water vapor transmission determination is performed to measure the passage of moisture through evaporation of leather materials. This test is based on the principle of placing the leather material in a water vapor permeability tester and testing it under certain standard conditions.
Sample Preparation and Test Process
The testing process begins with the preparation and conditioning of the samples in a laboratory environment according to certain standards. The samples are placed in a water vapor permeability tester and tested for a specified period of time. The data obtained is used to determine the water vapor transmission capacity of the sample and the results are reported.
