MEMBRANE MOISTURE MEASUREMENT

摘要

A method of measuring the concentration of water in an ion exchange membrane cmprising: (i) measuring the absorbance of electromagnetic radiation transmitted through the membrane, said electromagnetic radiation comprising at least one frequency of an intensity such that it is at least partially, but not entirely, absorbed by water molecules within the membrane; (ii) measuring the thickness of the membrane; and (iii) using the values obtained in (i) and (ii) above to calculate the concentration of water molecules in the membrane.
