Organization: TAPPI
Publication Date: 1 January 2013
Status: active
Page Count: 3
scope:

The following procedure applies to pulp, paper, paperboard, and paper products, except those containing significant quantities of materials other than water that are volatile at 105± 2°C, or less, or for materials that are oxidized or decomposed above 102ºC.   

This method should be followed to calculate the results of a chemical analysis of pulp, paper and paperboard on a moisture-free basis.

This method should not be used to determine an "as received" or "use" moisture content. Use TAPPI T 412 "Moisture in Paper," or T 210 "Sampling and Testing Wood Pulp Shipments for Moisture."
