CONT

A dehydration plant for dehydrating food products, including a microwave kiln, conveyor means for conveying food products through the kiln, circulation means for circulating air through the kiln, refrigerated dehumidification means for dehumidifying the air to be circulated through the kiln, and heating means for heating the air to be circulated through the kiln such that food products conveyed through the kiln are exposed to both microwave emissions and the flow of dehumidified heated air to thereby dehydrate the food products.

  • Food Industries
OBS

The International Microwave Power Institute(IMPI) was founded in 1966 to serve the information needs of specialists working with dielectric(microwave and RF) heating systems. In 1977, the Institute reorganized to expand its industrial and scientific base to meet the information needs evolving in consumer microwave ovens and related products.

Record 7 1999-01-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Packaging in Plastic
DEF

Polyester terephthalate(PET) film upon which has been vacuum-deposited a very small amount of aluminum in order to create a heating configuration for microwave packaging purposes.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Emballages en matières plastiques
DEF

Film de polyéthylène ayant subi le procédé de métallisation.

CONT

La métallisation des films plastiques se fait en condensant sur la surface du film des vapeurs d'aluminium sous vide. L'opération se réalise dans une enceinte étanche où l'on crée un vide très poussé [...] À l'intérieur de l'enceinte, une bobine de film support se déroule contre un cylindre refroidisseur. Face à ce cylindre, un creuset chauffé par induction fond de l'aluminium qui vaporise et va se condenser sur le film. Celui-ci est ensuite rebobiné à l'intérieur de l'enceinte. La couche d'aluminium déposée est très faible [...] La surface métallisée est parfaitement homogène et remarquablement brillante. Les films métallisés sont généralement les films polyesters et les polypropylènes bi-orientés. [...] Les polyesters et les polyamides métallisés entrent dans la composition de nombreux complexes. Dans le cas du polyester, il permet d'obtenir des imperméabilités à l'oxygène inférieures à 1 cm³/m³, ce qu'aucun matériau plastique simple ne peut obtenir.
