Did you know that wood is a hygroscopic material? This means it naturally absorbs and releases moisture depending on the humidity of its surroundings. When the moisture level in wood changes, it can swell or shrink. This may lead to problems such as warping, cracking or even structural failure. That’s why accurate measurement of wood moisture is so important, especially in industries like furniture making, construction and wood processing. At NMIM, we perform calibration of Wood Moisture Meters

Woodworking Facts Wood Expansion and Contraction Wood is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs and releases moisture based on the surrounding environment. This causes wood to expand and contract, which can affect joints, paneling, and finishes. Proper design allows for wood movement, such as using floating panels or expansion gaps. Seasonal changes in humidity can cause doors to stick or panels to warp if not accounted for. Woodworkers mitigate this by selecting stable woods, using the correct joinery

Pastry & Baking Arts students made an ocean themed sculpture using isomalt. Isomalt is a sugar substitute made from beet sugar and it’s commonly used for sugar sculptures. It’s a low-hygroscopic substance, meaning it tends to absorb less moisture than sugar, making it more stable 🪸 📸: @emilybrookings | Institute of Culinary Education

Experiment Buzz on Instagram: "This video demonstrates the fascinating process of hydrographic printing, also known as water transfer imaging. It’s a specialized method used to apply complex, printed designs to three-dimensional objects. The Process in the Video Preparation: A man stands over a large tank of water where a thin, wood-grain patterned film is floating on the surface. An activator chemical has already been applied to the film, turning it into a liquid ink layer that remains held tog
