Area density: Measurement, Usage & Overview

The area density (also known as areal density, surface density, superficial density, column density, or density thickness) of a two-dimensional object is defined as the quotient of mass by area. The SI derived unit is the "kilogram per square metre" (unit symbol kg·m−2).
