CO2 Transmission Rates in Packaging Films by Mark Maharaj is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The study evaluates the gas transmission rates of commercially available polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) films for modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) at various temperatures and thicknesses. Results indicate that oxygen transmission rates (OTR) increase with temperature and decrease with film thickness, while CO2 transmission rates (CO2TR) were also measured for micro-perforated films. The findings highlight the importance of selecting appropriate packaging films based on their gas transmission pr
