General information about material moisture: In the field of moisture measuring there are two kinds of moisture: Relative equilibrium moisture content and absolute moisture of material. The relative equilibrium moisture content of a material indicates the relative moisture of ambient air counterbalancing the material. In this case the material does not absorb or release any moisture. The absolute moisture of material indicates the percentage of water content of a material referred to the total weight (paper, grain,...) and with some materials (e.g. wood) referred to the dry mass. Almost all materials...
