This morning, the webmaster shared with you ASTM F2096-11. Some netizens also talked about this standard in the email. But I’m not sure if the PDF I uploaded today is the latest version. You can leave me a message below if you know.
ASTM F2096-11 covers the detection of gross leaks in packaging. Method sensitivity is down to 250 μm (0.010 in.) with an 81 % probability (see Section 11). This test method may be used for tray and pouch packages.
Keywords of the standard are as follows:
Bubble Emission Leak Test – Bubble Test – Leak Test – Medical Packaging – Package Integrity – Package Integrity – Pharmaceutical And Medical Packaging – Porous Packaging Materials – Pouch Packages – Tray Packages.

5.1 The Internal pressurization test method provides a practical way to examine packages for gross leaks.
5.2 This test method is extremely useful in a test laboratory environment where no common package material/size exists.
5.3 This test method may apply to large or long packagesthat do not fit into any other package integrity test method apparatus.
