Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How does changing the operating temperature for a permeation tube affect the emission rate?

A. If a permeation rate is already known at a given temperature, then for each 1°C increase in temperature, the emission rate increases by roughly 10%.

A good reference for permeation tube information is Gerald D. Mitchell’s paper,  "A Review of Permeation Tubes and Permeators," Separation and Purification Methods, 29(1), 119-128 (2000).
