About These Units
Ounce per Cubic Foot (oz/ft³)
Ounces per cubic foot (oz/ft³) measures lighter materials and packaging. Styrofoam: 1-3 oz/ft³. Fiberglass insulation: 0.5-1.0 oz/ft³. Used for foam densities, pillow fills, and lightweight insulation materials.
Specific Gravity (SG)
Specific gravity (SG) is the dimensionless ratio of a substance's density to water at 4°C. Water = 1.0 by definition. Gasoline: 0.72-0.78. Honey: 1.4. Mercury: 13.6. Gold: 19.3. Also called relative density. Objects with SG < 1 float in water.
