Paper density measures a paper product's mass per unitvolume. MeasurementThe density can be calculated by dividing the grammage of paper (in grams per square metre or "gsm") by its caliper (usually in micrometres, occasionally in mils). In countries that did not adopt the metric system, paper density is often measured in basis weight. This measuring system expresses the density of paper by weighing a set number of so-called basis sheets.

DensityDensityDensity (volumetric mass density or specific mass) is the ratio of a substance's mass to its volume. The symbol most often used for density is ρ (the lower case Greek letter rho), although the Latin letter D (or d) can also be used: ρ=mV, where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume.GrammagePaperPaperPaper is a thin sheet of matted cellulosefibers. Largely derived from lignocellulose, paper is created from a pulp dissolved into a slurry that is drained and dried into sheets. Different types of paper are defined by constituent fiber, paper pulp, sizing, coating, paper size, paper density and grammage.MicrometreMicrometreThe micrometre (micrometer in US spelling; symbol: μm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equalling 10 metre (SI standard prefix "micro-" = 10); that is, one millionth of a metre (or one thousandth of a millimetre, 0.001 mm, or about 0.00004inch). It is also known as the micron.Division (mathematics)Division (mathematics)Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic. The other operations are addition, subtraction, and multiplication. What is being divided is called the dividend, which is divided by the divisor, and the result is called the quotient. At an elementary level the division of two natural numbers is, among other possible interpretations, the process of calculating the number of times one number is contained within another.VolumeVolumeVolume is a measure of regions in three-dimensional space. It is often quantified numerically using SI derived units (such as the cubic metre and litre) or by various imperial or US customary units (such as the gallon, quart, cubic inch). The definition of length and height (cubed) is interrelated with volume.Thousandth of an inchThousandth of an inchA thousandth of an inch is a derived unit of length in a system of units using inches. Equal to 1⁄1000 of an inch, a thousandth is commonly called a thou (used for both singular and plural) or, particularly in North America, a mil (plural mils). The words are shortened forms of the English and Latin words for "thousand" ( in Latin).MassMassMass is an intrinsic physical quantity of a body which in modern physics is generally defined as the strength of an object's gravitational attraction to other bodies. The unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI) is the kilogram (kg). Mass can also be understood as a measure of the energy content of a body (see E=mc²).Unit of volumeUnit of volumeA unit of volume is a unit of measurement for measuring volume or capacity, the extent of an object or space in three dimensions. Units of capacity may be used to specify the volume of fluids or bulk goods, for example water, rice, sugar, grain or flour. UnitsAccording to the SI system, the base unit for measuring length is the metre.Gram per cubic centimetreGram per cubic centimetreThe gram per cubic centimetre is a unit of density in International System of Units (SI), and is commonly used in chemistry. Its official SI symbols are g/cm3, g·cm−3, or g cm−3. It is equal to the units gram per millilitre (g/mL) and kilogram per litre (kg/L). It is defined by dividing the gram, a unit of mass, by the cubic centimetre, a unit of volume. It is a coherent unit in the CGS system, but is not a coherent unit of the SI.
