Definition: (1) The amount of water absorbed by a composite material when immersed in water for a stipulated period of time. (2) The ratio of the weight of water absorbed by a material, to the weight of the dry materials.

Water diffuses in response to the osmotic gradient established by sodium - in this case into the intercellular space. It seems that the bulk of the water absorption is transcellular, but some also diffuses through the tight junctions.

Large water absorption occurs in the jejunum and the ileum, with the jejunum taking the main role. ... Because there are no known water transporters or channels in the gastrointestinal tract, passive water absorption is the only known process by which water is absorbed.

Therefor it is necessary to get information about the apparent specific gravity and its water absorption capacity. The information of the amount of water absorption from recycled aggregates are necessary to reach the right w/z-ratio in the planned concrete composition to get the wanted compressive strength.

Photo #2. This is one of the most graphic illustrations you will ever see of differing rates of water absorption in various areas of one hull. This is looking straight down at the centerline bilge in the forefoot where a bit of black water lies at the bottom of the vee (the black vertical line).
