Specific Gravity Determination Balance

A Specific Gravity Determination Balance is a type of balance used in chemical analysis to determine the specific gravity of a substance. It is classified under the supply class Chemical Analysis Instruments and belongs to the supply group Instruments And Laboratory Equipment.

Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance, usually water. It is a measure of how dense a substance is compared to water. The specific gravity determination balance is designed to accurately measure the mass of a substance and compare it to the mass of an equal volume of water.

This type of balance typically has a high precision and accuracy, as specific gravity measurements require precise measurements of mass. It may have features such as a built-in density calculation function or a specific gravity calculation function to simplify the determination process.

The specific gravity determination balance is commonly used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and research laboratories, where accurate density measurements are crucial for quality control and research purposes.

When using a specific gravity determination balance, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and ensure proper calibration and handling of the balance to obtain accurate results.
