evaporation rate
Vaporization pace measure
Evaporation rate is the speed at which a liquid converts to vapor and disperses into the surrounding air.
The term appears in chemistry, meteorology, and industrial contexts: The evaporation rate increases with temperature and air movement.
Perfumers and paint formulators pay close attention to evaporation rates when blending ingredients.
