Payne - Permeability Cup
 

Introduction

This simple instrument allows reliable measurement of permeability to moisture of paints or similar coatings. It consists of aluminium cup, a ring and a screw cap. After drying, a coated permeable backing material is cut out to form a disc and tightened by the cap/disc assembly onto the cup, containing 5 cm³ of distilled water. The whole is weighed to 0.1 mg and placed into a dessicator at 38°C. Periodic weighing every 24 hours indicates the loss of water that has permeated through the film. It is recommended to run the test in triplicate, due to film imperfections.
