Density
Density Measurement Lab Services
This measurement is vitally important for quality monitoring and process control to avoid costly over dosage of raw and intermediate products during manufacturing. There are several definitions for density and it is important to understand how each is determined in order to choose the one that suits your needs best.
Available Density Measurements:
Skeletal Density:
This test is normally performed at room temperature, but can be performed at a customer-specified temperature in the range of 0C to 50C. Almost any solid samples as well as some fluid samples can be measured by this technique.
Mercury Density:
Bulk Density or TAP Density:
Further discussion of these terms and equations are found in USP <61>
The following ASTM or USP standards can be specifically requested when submitting samples for density: USP <616> | USP <699> | ASTM D-2856 and ASTM D-6683
