About This Product
Leather takes up moisture from the air, and water vapour absorption is one of the properties checked in leather testing. In this test a circular piece of leather is fixed over a cylindrical cavity in a metal container with distilled water inside, so that the vapour reaches the specimen for a set period. The specimen is then weighed again, and the gain in weight is used to calculate the water vapour absorption. The apparatus is used in leather and materials testing labs. Schools, colleges and distributors in Belarus, Belgium, Mongolia, Guinea and Republic of the Congo can source the Water Vapor Absorption Tester from School Lab Equipment India.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How does the Water Vapor Absorption Tester work?
A circular piece of leather is fixed over a cylindrical cavity in a metal container with distilled water inside. The specimen is held firmly against the lip of the cavity and is exposed to the vapours for a specified period.
Q2. How is the result calculated?
The gain in weight of the test specimen from absorbing the vapours is determined, and the water vapour absorption value is calculated from it.
