Density Cubes Set
Model Number: MTM-30
The Density Cubes Set from Micro Technologies is designed for practical experiments involving density, mass, volume and material comparison. The set contains four one-inch cubes, consisting of one each of nylon, acrylic, aluminium and pinewood, enabling students to compare materials with the same nominal dimensions but different masses and densities.
Product Specification
The Density Cubes Set from Micro Technologies is a practical laboratory specimen collection designed to demonstrate the relationship between mass, volume, density and material type. It provides four cubes made from distinctly different materials, making differences in physical properties easy to investigate experimentally.
The complete set contains four one-inch cubes, comprising one cube each of nylon, acrylic, aluminium and pinewood. Their comparable nominal dimensions allow students to focus on how differences in material composition affect mass and density.
The regular cubic geometry makes volume calculations straightforward. Students can measure the dimensions of each specimen using suitable measuring instruments and calculate its volume using the standard cube-volume relationship.
After determining volume, each cube can be weighed using a suitable laboratory balance. The measured mass and volume can then be used to calculate density using:
Density = Mass ÷ Volume
Because the cubes represent metal, polymer and wood materials, the set provides a useful comparison across different classes of materials rather than limiting the experiment to similar substances.
The aluminium cube provides a metallic specimen, while nylon and acrylic represent commonly studied polymer materials. Pinewood provides a natural material specimen with noticeably different physical characteristics.
Students can compare cubes of approximately equal external dimensions and observe that they do not necessarily have equal masses. This provides a clear practical demonstration that density depends on the material rather than simply the size of an object.
The set can also be used for material-identification exercises. Experimentally calculated density values may be compared with appropriate reference data to identify or verify the material represented by each specimen.
The cubes are useful for introducing concepts such as mass-to-volume ratio, relative material density and physical properties of solids.
For quantitative laboratory work, users should measure the actual dimensions and mass of each specimen rather than relying solely on the nominal one-inch size.
The compact four-piece configuration makes the set easy to distribute during practical sessions and convenient to store with other laboratory measurement accessories.
Manufactured and supplied by Micro Technologies, the Density Cubes Set is suitable for physics laboratories, material science demonstrations and educational institutions conducting experiments on density and properties of matter.

FAQs
What is included in the Density Cubes Set?
The set contains four one-inch cubes, consisting of one each of nylon, acrylic, aluminium and pinewood.
What is the size of each Density Cube?
Each specimen is supplied as a nominal one-inch cube.
What are Density Cubes used for?
They are primarily used for practical experiments involving density, mass, volume and comparison of different materials.
How is density calculated using these cubes?
The mass of each cube is measured with a suitable balance and its volume is determined from its dimensions. Density is then calculated using mass divided by volume.
Why are different materials included?
Different materials have different densities. Using cubes of comparable dimensions allows students to observe how material type affects mass and density.
Is an aluminium cube included?
Yes. The set contains one aluminium cube.
Are polymer specimens included?
Yes. The set includes nylon and acrylic cubes, providing two polymer specimens for comparison.
Does the set include a wooden cube?
Yes. One pinewood cube is included.
Can these cubes be used for material identification?
Yes. Measured density values can be compared with appropriate reference data as part of suitable material-identification exercises.
Where is the Density Cubes Set commonly used?
It is suitable for physics laboratories, material science laboratories, schools, colleges, universities and educational science facilities.
