Moisture Analysis and Measurement

Moisture Mapping is an essential technique used to measure moisture content in various materials. It provides valuable insights into the moisture distribution within a material, enabling informed decision-making and effective moisture control strategies.

How to Perform Moisture Analysis?

Moisture analysis involves carefully controlled procedures to accurately determine the moisture content of a material. Here are the key steps involved:

• Sampling: Representative samples of the material are collected for analysis.
• Preparation: Samples are prepared by removing surface moisture, grinding or cutting them into smaller pieces, and weighing them.
• Drying: Samples are dried using appropriate methods, such as oven drying, vacuum drying, or freeze drying, to remove moisture.
• Moisture Content Calculation: The moisture content is calculated by determining the difference between the sample’s initial and final weights after drying and expressing it as a percentage of the initial weight.
