Some Physical Properties of Hemp Seed
TL;DR: In this paper, various physical properties of hemp seed were determined as a function of moisture content, such as sphericity, surface area and thousand seed mass, and the static and dynamic coefficients of friction on various surfaces, namely, rubber, plywood and galvanised metal also increased linearly with increase in moisture content.
