Comprehensive Guide to Diaper Testing Methods and Tools

Diapers are essential products designed to maintain hygiene and comfort, especially for infants. To ensure that diapers meet the required standards for absorption, leakage prevention, and overall performance, manufacturers conduct various testing methods. One critical test for evaluating diaper materials is the liquid strike-through test, which is designed to measure how well a diaper’s outer layer resists liquid penetration. The Liquid Strike-Through Tester GT-CN04 plays a vital role in this testing process, helping manufacturers assess the efficiency and performance of diaper materials in terms of liquid resistance.

Why Diaper Testing Matters
Diapers need to perform effectively under a variety of conditions to ensure comfort and hygiene. The key factors that affect a diaper's functionality include:

  • Absorption Capacity: How well the diaper absorbs fluids and prevents them from coming into contact with the skin.
  • Leakage Prevention: The ability of the diaper to contain liquid without leakage, which can cause discomfort or irritation.
  • Skin Protection: Preventing the skin from becoming irritated due to prolonged exposure to moisture.

The Liquid Strike-Through Test with GT-CN04
One of the primary tests used to evaluate the liquid resistance of diaper materials is the Liquid Strike-Through Test. This test assesses how quickly and efficiently liquids penetrate the outer layers of the diaper material. The Liquid Strike-Through Tester GT-CN04 is an essential piece of equipment used for this purpose.

How the Liquid Strike-Through Test Works
The process of testing liquid strike-through is straightforward and helps to simulate how a diaper will behave when exposed to liquid in real-life scenarios:

  • Sample Preparation: A diaper sample (or a nonwoven fabric used in diapers) is placed on a baseplate with absorbent paper underneath. The sample is cut to a standardized size, usually 125mm x 125mm, to ensure consistent testing conditions.
  • Solution Setup: A saline solution made from distilled water and salt is prepared. The solution’s surface tension is adjusted to match typical conditions of use, ensuring accuracy in the results.
  • Penetration Test: The saline solution is added to the top of the sample using a pipette or suction ball, and the test begins. The GT-CN04 Liquid Strike Through Time Tester measures how long it takes for the liquid to pass through the diaper’s outer layer, simulating real-world wetting conditions.
  • Repetition for Consistency: The test can be repeated multiple times to simulate multiple exposures to liquid. This helps manufacturers understand how well the material holds up under continuous use.
  • Data Collection and Reporting: After the test, the machine provides detailed results, including the time it took for the liquid to penetrate the material. These results are displayed on a touchscreen interface and can be printed for record-keeping.

Features of the GT-CN04 Liquid Strike-Through Tester
The Liquid Strike-Through Tester GT-CN04 offers several features that make it an effective tool for evaluating diaper materials:

  • Touch Screen Interface: The machine is controlled via an intuitive color touch screen, which allows users to easily set test parameters and view results.
  • Customizable Test Parameters: Users can adjust settings such as penetration time (20-99 seconds) and the number of penetration cycles (1-5 times), tailoring the test to meet specific needs.
  • Built-in Printer: The built-in thermal printer enables quick printing of test results, which is useful for documentation and analysis.
  • Durable Design: The penetration disc is made of corrosion-resistant material, ensuring long-term reliability. The disc is also equipped with a positioning device to avoid collisions during testing.
  • Data Accessibility: All test results and statistical data are easily accessible via the main interface, allowing for quick analysis and reporting.

Industry Standards for Liquid Strike Through Tester
To ensure consistency and reliability, diaper testing must adhere to specific industry standards. Relevant standards include:

ISO 9073-13: This standard outlines procedures for testing the liquid strike-through resistance of nonwoven fabrics.

GB/T 24218 Series: These Chinese standards focus on the testing of nonwoven materials used in diapers, including liquid penetration and absorption performance.


By following these standards, manufacturers can ensure that their diapers meet global expectations for performance, safety, and comfort.


Other Diaper Testing Methods
While the Liquid Strike-Through Tester GT-CN04 plays a key role in assessing liquid penetration, it is part of a broader suite of tests designed to evaluate diaper performance. Here are some additional methods and machines used in diaper testing:

1. Diaper Permeability Tester GT-CN10
Diaper Permeability Tester can be used to determine the amount of effusion, leakage and leakage of diapers and diapers or pads for infants and adults.

2. Touch Screen Control Diapers Permeability Tester GT-CN15
Diapers Permeability Tester Used to test the permeability performance of diapers, such as absorption speed, rewet, leakage.

3. Diaper Permeability Testing Machine GT-CN16
Diapers Permeability Tester Used to test the permeability performance of diapers, such as absorption speed, rewet, leakage.
