Ovens for Moisture Determination
Moisture determination ovens are used in the thermogravimetric method (loss on drying) in which samples are dried for a specified period of time at constant temperatures. Memmert's precise, uniform temperature capabilities make this unit a perfect fit for building materials, filter materials, and other related processes.

Importance of measuring moisture content
Determining moisture or RH content is important in many industries, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, and construction. The moisture content of a substance can affect its quality, stability, and shelf life, and can also impact its processing and packaging. In some cases, excessive moisture can lead to the growth of microorganisms or the degradation of the material, while too little moisture can cause the material to become brittle or unstable. Similarly, monitoring the RH content of the environment can be important in controlling mold growth, maintaining optimal storage conditions for certain materials, and preventing corrosion or other damage.
