Enter the weight of water in the sample (Ww) in grams (gr):
Enter the weight of dry sample (weight of the solids) (Ws) in grams (gr):
Water Content (Moisture Content) w =
0.00%
Laboratory tests
Enter the weight of container W1 in grams (gr):
Enter the weight of container and sample before drying (container+wet sample) W2 in grams (gr):
Enter the weight of container and sample after drying (container+dry sample) W3 in grams (gr):
Water Content (Moisture Content) w =
0.00%
How to determine moisture content?
Calculate using the formula:
w = (Ww / Ws)*100
w (%) – Water Сontent (Moisture Content) is measured in percent;
Ww(gr) – weight of water in the sample (Ww) in grams (gr);
Ws (gr) – weight of dry sample (weight of the solids) in grams (gr)
How to determine moisture content in a laboratory?
Calculate using the formula:
w = ((W2 – W3) / (W3 – W1))*100
W1 (gr) – weight of container in grams (gr);
W2 (gr) – weight of container and sample before drying (container+wet sample) in grams (gr);
W3 (gr) – weight of container and sample after drying (container+dry sample) in grams (gr).
