Abstract: The anti-caries properties of aluminum-plastic composite film packaging for milk powder play a decisive role in the shelf life of milk powder. In this paper, Labthink FDT-02 powder with a rubbing tester to test the anti-plastic composite film packaging kneading properties, and describes the contents of the basic test procedure and test equipment of the scope of application, and other parameters of the device, the choice of packaging companies rub-like Refer to the flexibility test equipment and verification methods.
Key words: milk powder, aluminum-plastic composite film, shelf life, anti-caries performance, flexibility, flaw tester
1 , meaning
Generally, the milk powder is mostly bagged with aluminum-plastic composite film, and the bagged milk powder is cost-effective and convenient to carry. Aluminum-plastic composite film is added with metal material aluminum foil, and the aluminum foil material itself is relatively brittle. Pinholes and creases are easy to occur in the production, processing or transportation of milk powder, which causes a certain extent on packaging barrier properties and physical and mechanical properties. The decline will prevent the oxidative deterioration and agglomeration of the milk powder during the shelf life. Therefore, the milk powder production enterprise should strengthen the detection of the anti-caries performance of the aluminum-plastic composite film packaging during the screening of the packaging materials.

2 , the implementation of standards
At present, there is no targeted detection standard for domestic performance. Therefore, the test in this paper refers to ASTM F392-1993 (2004) "Test Method for Flexural Durability of Flexible Barrier Materials" to simulate the behavior of bismuth and crushing damage of aluminum-plastic composite film during production, processing and transportation. The anti-caries properties of the material were judged by detecting changes in the number of pinholes or changes in barrier properties before and after the crucible.

4.1 Scope of application
(1) This equipment is suitable for testing flexible film, composite film, coated film and paper. These include various aluminum-plastic composite films, composite films, aluminized films, nylon films, coated films, and papers for food and drug packaging.
(2) This equipment meets international standards: ASTM F392
4.2 Equipment parameters
- æ‰æ“ Frequency: 45 times / minute.
- æ‰æ“ angle: 440° or 400° .
- Five standard test modes, four sample stations can easily achieve combined test under different conditions.
- Fast switching between long and short strokes greatly improves test efficiency.
- The system is controlled by a microcomputer, with a liquid crystal display, menu interface and PVC operation panel, which is convenient for users to carry out test operations quickly and conveniently.
4.3 Sample preparation
Except as otherwise specified in the sample requirements, the sample shall be taken in accordance with the provisions of GB 2918 before being tested , in an environment of temperature 23 ± 2 ° C , relative humidity 50 ± 5% RH , after at least 24 hours, cut three pieces The sample to be tested is 200 mm wide and 280 mm long .
5 , the test process
(1) Fix the sample with a length of 280 mm and a width of 200 mm on the instrument with a pressure-sensitive double-sided tape of 10 to 12 mm width.
(2) Set test parameters and select æ‰æ“ mode.
(3) Close the instrument glass door and press the “TEST†button to start the test.
(4) When the number of times the instrument has reached the set value, the instrument will automatically stop.

6 , test results
The test results are evaluated by two methods:
- Determine the number of small holes by using colored turpentine to dye onto the white paper through small holes;
- The sample was tested for gas permeability and moisture permeability.

7 , conclusion
Through the test, it was found that the aluminum-plastic composite film sample showed a wide range of pinholes after the crucible, indicating that the aluminum-plastic composite film has poor flexibility, and it is easy to have creases or tiny pinholes in the package handling and sales process, resulting in excessive oxygen transmission. The sealing property is deteriorated. In order to ensure the product shelf life, the thickness of the aluminum foil material and the thickness of the adhesive used for the aluminum foil and the plastic are adjusted by detecting the anti-cracking property. FDT-02 æ‰æ“ tester is a test instrument for testing the anti-caries performance of plastic film, sheet and composite film. It is easy to operate and combines with oxygen transmission rate test system, water vapor transmission rate test system and sealing tester. The anti-cracking properties, barrier properties and sealing properties of the aluminum-plastic composite film before and after packaging were evaluated. Labthink has been committed to providing professional equipment and testing services to customers around the world, providing customers with a large number of packaging material performance data references.

The Toolless Roto Seals are durable plastic and wire seal that can be applied without a tool but removed with a tool. The roto seals has a big range of applications, includes: Meters, Fiber Drums, Scales, Gasoline Pumps, Imported Carpets, otes, Taxi Meters etc. The Material is Acrylic and 1 x 7 0.7mm soft stainless steel wire. The wire can be nylon coated or uncoated.
The seals are marked by heat stamp or laser engraving. The marking content includes consecutive number and company name/logo; last three digits of serial number laser etched on insert as an option. The barcode is also a special option if the seal space is enough for it. Barcode can be Code 128, Interleaved 2 of 5 or Code 39. The roto shell is always in transparent while the insert can be in different colors like : Red / Dark Blue / Dark Green / Yellow / Orange / Gray.
