Abstract
Absorption of moisture causes paper to change its electrical resistance and permittivity. The second effect is approximately linear and little affected by changes in furnish. It is most conveniently measured by means of a fringing capacitor. Instruments for use statically and on a moving web are described. Theories of the water-cellulose bond are discussed.Keywords
