Keywords Equilibrium Hygroscopic Kiln Relative humidity Stickers Timber seasoning

Definitions Equilibrium ; (noun) - a stable situation in which forces cancel one another. Hygroscopic ; (adjective) - absorbing moisture (as from the air). Kiln ; (noun) - a furnace for drying wood. Relative Humidity ; (noun) - the ratio of the amount of water in the air at a given temperature to the maximum amount it could hold at that temperature; expressed as a percentage. Timber Seasoning ; the drying out of timber to a moisture content of 20% or below.
