Determination method for permeability
A.1 General
PLACE the specimen on the arc-shaped specimen base lined with absorbent paper, then PLACE the standard test liquid addition module on the surface absorption area of the specimen. Under a certain pressure of the specimen, the liquid addition device adds a certain volume of normal saline into the standard test liquid addition module, and the automatic timing device records the time from the start of adding liquid to the time when the specimen completely absorbs the normal saline. ADD liquid twice to each specimen, and express the absorption speed of the specimen with the two absorption times respectively. After the second liquid addition is completed, TAKE OUT the standard test liquid addition module, PLACE a certain number of layers of absorbent paper on the surface of the specimen, then PLACE the standard test pressurization module, PRESSURIZE under a certain pressure for a specified time. The mass increase of the absorbent paper on the top of the specimen represents the rewet of the specimen, and the mass increase of the absorbent paper at the bottom of the specimen represents the leakage of the specimen.

If the two specimen gauzes have obvious fluorescence phenomenon, it is judged that the specimen has migratable fluorescent substances. If one of the two specimen gauzes has more obvious fluorescence than the blank test gauze, the test shall be repeated. If there is no obvious fluorescent phenomenon after comparing the retested specimen gauzes with the blank test gauze, it is judged that the specimen has no migratable fluorescent substances; otherwise, it is judged that the specimen has migratable fluorescent substances.
