The present invention is directed to a novel apparatus for measuring the transmission or permeation of gases, flavors, aromas and volatile substances through films and membranes. The instrument of the present invention also provides the capability of high rate testing in order to allow the expedient analysis of multiple film samples within a reasonable amount of time. This invention also provides an instrument and method for extremely high sampling rate of permeant gas with little or no background noise, whereby detection sensitivity is greatly enhanced relative to conventional testing instruments.

Method and device for the measurement of barrier properties of films

A process and apparatus for forming, filling, sealing and deflating a package of goods prior to the time the fill opening is sealed includes a blast of air against the exterior flexible sidewalls of the package to thereby drive gas from the inside of the package.

Form-fill-seal deflation method and apparatus

A process for forming a flexible, generally tubular, three-surface, single-pleated, microwave-penetrable package for use in cooking popcorn. Two transverse seals and one lengthwise-extending seam seal the package. Venting means releases accumulated steam produced by the popping corn and the package maintains its expanded structure even after venting has commenced. A convenient means of opening the package is also provided.

Process for forming a microwave popcorn package

A method of preparing popcorn in a flexible, generally tubular, three-surface, single-pleated, microwave-penetrable package. Two transverse seals and one lengthwise-extending seam seal the package. Venting means releases accumulated steam produced by the popping corn and the package maintains its expanded structure even after venting has commenced. A convenient means of opening the package is also provided.
