Flex Fatigue in Bioprocess Films - (PPT)

摘要

A single film for use across a wide range of applications requires a balance of properties → need rapid assessment of prototype film performance. WAVE is an extreme example of film flex fatigue (bulk liquid shipment, intermodal RTP shipment, STRs) → Films designed to exceed WAVE needs will exceed needs for other applications. Developed a simple constrained flex test enabling discrimination of flex fatigue resistance in candidate films with high statistical confidence. Cross-sectional microscopy elucidates failure sequences of different films, to guide decisions on structure optimization for flex fatigue. Rapid screening of film candidates enables thorough rocker testing of promising candidates → reduce design cycle time & increase confidence.
