Specific Gravity Cups

Specific Gravity Cups - SADC296 

A stainless steel or anodized aluminum precision instrument for determining the specific weight of paints and similar products. A tolerance of 0.1% is guaranteed.

Testing is carried out in accordance with ISO at 23±2℃. This instrument consists of a cylindrical container and cover with a hole for exhaust of excess liquid for any excess Paint（or Ink）to be removed when the cup cover is pressing tightly. By doing so, will also ensure that no air bubbles（or pockets of air）are being trapped.

Procedure : 

• Weight cleaned density cup empty and record weigh
• Temper density cup and test liquid（20℃±0.5) 
• Fill density cup 
• Put cover on without tilting 
• Avoid air bubbles 
• Remove overflowing liquid carefully with absorbent cloth 
• Weight filled density cup 
• Calculate density: Density = weight of filled cup (g) - weight of empty cup (g) ./. Volume of density cup (ml)
