The equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of a hygroscopic material surrounded at least partially by air is the moisture content at which the material is...

Wood drying (also seasoning lumber or wood seasoning) reduces the moisture content of wood before its use. When the drying is done in a kiln, the product...

substance, as physical properties are strongly affected by moisture content and high moisture content for a period of time may progressively degrade a material...

storage. Moisture content in grain is related to the relative humidity and the temperature of the surrounding air. Equilibrium moisture content point is...

it is in equilibrium with the atmospheric moisture content or relative humidity, and since this varies so does the equilibrium moisture content. Laboratory...

exhibits a much lower equilibrium moisture content compared to natural, non-acetylated wood. The maximum equilibrium moisture content of regular wood is...

on mass at 12% moisture content and volume at the same (ρ12). This condition occurs when the wood is at equilibrium moisture content with air at about...

evaluate moisture content and size changes in wood, such as making allowances for seasonal movement in wood floors. Specific humidity (or moisture content) is...

Hydrostatic equilibrium approximation. And its divergence (convergence) imply net evapotranspiration (precipitation) as adding (removing) moisture from the...

the lumbers. As the hardwood dowel absorbs moisture from the softwood to reach an equilibrium moisture content, it expands into the surrounding wood, creating...

Moisture analysis covers a variety of methods for measuring the moisture content in solids, liquids, or gases. For example, moisture (usually measured...

humidity is at least 70%, or at least 65% at 20 °C (because the equilibrium moisture content of the substrate will be similar), a condition necessary for...
