Formerly some informations were given by the present authors concerning with an electric hygrometer devised originally by them. The apparatus is applicable and effective to measure the permeability of moisture of various kinds of materials in sheet form.As the anti-moisture properties are very important for packing materials the electric hygrometer was applied for the purpose of measuring moisture permeability of those materials this time. The method of the measurement enables us to observe moisture penetration moment by moment and to judge the degree of the moisture permeability of a specimen within one hour, i.e., the time amount to only one 70th of that required in ordinary weighing method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
