What are the requirements for pharmaceutical packaging materials

1. Certain mechanical properties
Packaging materials should be able to effectively protect products, and therefore should have certain strength, toughness, and elasticity to adapt to the influence of static and dynamic factors such as pressure, impact, and vibration.
2. Barrier performance
According to different requirements for product packaging, packaging materials should have certain barriers to moisture, water vapor, gas, light, aroma, odor, heat, etc.
3. Good security performance
The toxicity of packaging materials themselves should be low to avoid contaminating products and affecting human health; Packaging materials should be non corrosive and have properties such as insect, moth, rodent, and microbial inhibition to protect product safety.
4. Appropriate processing performance
Packaging materials should be suitable for processing and easy to make into various packaging containers. They should be easy to mechanization and automation of packaging operations to adapt to large-scale industrial production. They should be suitable for printing and easy to print packaging labels.
5. Better economic performance
Packaging materials should come from a wide range of sources, be easy to obtain, and have low costs. After use, packaging materials and containers should be easy to handle, not polluting the environment, and not causing public harm.
