Analysis of the density of liquids

Density analysis , also called specific gravity, is used to determine the mass of a liquid per unit of volume, generally expressed in g/cm³ or kg/m³. This fundamental parameter is used in many industrial sectors for quality control, formulation adjustment or monitoring product concentration. It is particularly used in the food, cosmetics, technical fluids, environment and nutrition sectors.

The measurement can be carried out using different techniques: electronic densimeter, pycnometer, or flotation method, depending on the required precision and the nature of the liquid (viscous, aqueous, oily, etc.). The analysis can also be coupled with temperature controls, as the density varies significantly depending on this.

Typical matrices include: oils, juices, syrups, liquid extracts, aqueous solutions, liquid cosmetics, liquid fertilizers, etc.

At YesWeLab , we collaborate with a rigorously selected network of laboratories, most of which are certified and/or accredited (ISO 17025, COFRAC, etc.). These laboratories are chosen based on your specific needs, the matrices to be analyzed, and the analytical techniques or methods required.
