Monitoring moisture content is a critical activity throughout the production of paper and paper-based products. At the raw materials stage, measuring moisture provides a quantitative evaluation of the paper pulp. Once the final paper goods have been produced, moisture analysis is important for defining the quality and usability. Moisture content determination of paper-based products is also important within the packaging industry.
This application note illustrates how a METTLER TOLEDO halogen moisture analyzer can be used in paper and pulp applications to provide fast and accurate moisture content measurements that correspond fully to the reference drying oven methods.
