Definition
fraction of a material entity that is determined by the volume of a specified material entity or site that is a continuant part of that material entity relative to the total volume of that material entity
Examples
- the volume fraction of gas bubbles in a foam; the volume fraction of ethanol in an aqueous solution; the volume fraction of solids in a slurry; the volume fraction of oil droplets in an emulsion; the volume fraction of liquid phase in a two-phase material

Primitive Class
This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.
Primitive Rationale
There are insufficient constructs for creating a set of necessary and sufficient conditions
Formal Axioms
First-Order Logic Axioms
VolumeFraction(x) → Fraction(x)
Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms
if x is a ‘volume fraction’ then x is a ‘fraction’
