What is moisture-proof desiccant type and use range?
Mar 17, 2023
Moisture-proof desiccant generally has quicklime desiccant, silica gel desiccant and montmorillonite desiccant.
Among them, the water absorption ability of quicklime desiccant is realized through chemical reaction, so the water absorption has irreversibility. It can be widely used in food, garment, tea, leather, shoe making, electrical appliances and other industries.
The main raw material of silica gel desiccant is silica gel, which is a kind of silicon oxide with high microporous structure, non-toxic, tasteless, odourless, chemically stable, and has strong water absorption ability. Therefore, it is widely used in the storage and transportation of instruments, meters, equipment and apparatus, leather, bags, shoes, textiles, food and medicine, etc. to control the relative humidity of the environment and prevent the items from getting damp, mould and rust.
Montmorillonite desiccant not only has fast adsorption speed and high adsorption capacity, but also is non-toxic, tasteless, non-contact corrosive and non-environmental pollution, especially applied to food packaging, which is harmless to human body. Scope of application: It is widely used in products that cannot be sealed by oil or gas phase, such as: optical instruments, electronic products, medical health care, food packaging and dry air sealing of military products and civil products.
