Abstract
Therefore, there are two overall objectives of this project: (A) Develop best practices for both the standard saturated salt solution method and the new automated water sorption instruments with the Dynamic Vapor Sorption instrument as a representative instrument for obtaining moisture sorption isotherms, and (B) Explore additional applications of humidity generating instruments with the Dynamic Vapor Sorption instrument as a representative instrument.
