Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does milligram per cubic millimeter measure?
-
It is a density unit expressing mass in milligrams divided by volume in cubic millimeters, often used for microscale or biomedical samples.
-
Where is ounce per cubic foot commonly used?
-
This unit is commonly used in the US customary/Imperial system for materials like building insulation, packaging, and industrial density reports.
-
Why convert between mg/mm³ and oz/ft³?
-
Conversion helps translate metric density measurements into imperial units preferred in US construction, packaging, and industrial contexts.
Key Terminology
-
Milligram per cubic millimeter (mg/mm³)
-
A density unit expressing mass in milligrams per volume in cubic millimeters, equal in magnitude to grams per cubic centimeter.
-
Ounce per cubic foot (oz/ft³)
-
An imperial density unit expressing how many avoirdupois ounces occupy one cubic foot of volume.
-
Density
-
The measure of mass per unit volume of a material.
