Tech/Engineering - Paper / Paper Manufacturing
English term or phrase: surface-area-to-volume ratio
As the sheets emerge, a fine, irregular yellowing of the edges becomes visible - the expression of the impact of water extraction and heat on the greater surface-area-to-volume ratio of the edge.

Si tratta della descrizione di un processo di produzione di pannelli di fibra di carta ricostituita. Una volta preparato l'impasto con la carta riciclata, da questo viene estratta l'acqua e viene poi inserito in un forno, dal quale fuoriesce, sotto forma di foglio, con questi bordi ingialliti. Non riesco a capire cosa significhi questa cosa della maggiore proporzione area di superficie/volume. Qualcuno mi sa aiutare? Grazie mille.
