Graphene Solids Content: Why Total Solids Is Not Graphene Content

Total solids and graphene additive loading answer different questions.

Updated · NANOLAB Knowledge

Total solids and graphene additive loading answer different questions. A product may have a published solids figure without publishing how much of a specific additive it contains. Repeating the solids number as ‘percent graphene’ would misdescribe the formula.

Read the label literally

Identify the exact label attached to a number. If it says solids content, retain that description. Ask the manufacturer what method and definition apply if the distinction is important to a comparison. Do not reassign the figure to a particular ingredient simply because the product name mentions graphene.

A practical documentation example

A distributor preparing a product card should keep separate fields for product code, stated solids content and any disclosed additive information. Leave an undisclosed field unclaimed rather than filling it with an assumption. The same discipline should apply to marketplace listings and translated brochures, where shortened wording can easily change a technical meaning.

A clear specification says what a number measures. Keeping total solids separate from additive loading protects the customer from a misleading impression and gives sales teams a defensible explanation.
