The determination of the moisture content of cereals by measurement of specific inductive capacity
L. G. Groves, J. King · Journal of the Society of Chemical Industry · 1946
Abstract The determination of the moisture content of a material by the measurement of its specific inductive capacity is now well established, and several commercial instruments are available using this principle, generally in conjunction with electrical conductivity. An instrument easily constructed in the laboratory is described in this paper, which it is hoped will enable the principle to be more widely used. The method employed in the determination of the moisture content of various cereals is described, together with the degree of accuracy to be expected and the limitations of the method.
