component in the substance
Moisture (LOD)- Mixture of Water + other volatile
componenets are present in the substance

Answer / subhash yadav
Water content of a product can be defined as the percentage
weight of water in relation to the dry weight of the product.
moisture contentsis a Amount of water (in any form) in a
material or substance.

Answer / vikram patil
Moisture content means calculate amount of H2o (only) in the
sample &
LOD means Loss On Drying ..i.e. % loss after Drying the
material at given temperature.... whatever it may be water
or any solvent anything which get out of material after
Drying at given temp.

Answer / haran
moiture content and water content are similar wards but
contently both separeted by prsence H2O in sample
moiture content : less than 1.0 % H2O in sample
for calculation KF-solution stadised by using DST (di
sodium tartate Dihydrate )
water content: sample with more than 1.0% of H2O for
calculation purpose KF-solution stadised by using pure water
(mill-pore water)
and always DST factor less then that water factor.for ex
DST kf factor was Around 5.0-5.2 and water kf factor was
around 5.1-5.3 (+or- 0.4)

Answer / nor
moisture content is water+volatile substances while water
content means only water molecule.

Answer / jörgen held
The moisture content of a solid is expressed as the quantity of water per unit mass of the dry solid.
The water content is expressed as the quantity of water per unit mass of the wet solid.
Take biomass as an example. If 1 kg wet biomass consists of 0.7 kg biomass and 0.3 kg of water the moisture content is 0.3/0.7 = 0.42857 but the water content is 0.3.

Answer / sandeep reddy
if the material contain the only water, that is water content/ the material contains the water along with residual solvents (media in production) called moisture content.
(or)
above 1.0 % is water content &
Below 1.0% is moisture content
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 4 No |
Answer / ssm949
Both water content and moisture content are numerically same but in actual water content is the weight of water to the weight of solid but moisture content is the mass of water to the mass of solid.
