Desiccants

Desiccant is described by "Unit" rather than size due to the differing absorbent properties of the products used. A "Unit" is the quantity of desiccant which will absorb 3.00 grams of water vapor at 20% relative humidity or 6.00 grams of water vapor at 40% relative humidity. A "Unit" of clay is typically 33 grams.

To determine which Unit size desiccant is best, the following information is needed: 1) type and size of container 2) type and amount of product being protected 3) environmental conditions.

• Inhibit the onset of mildew, rust, mold and corrosion.
• Designed to absorb the moisture found in a sealed package or container.
• Tyvek® bags are non-dusting and FDA approved.
• All bags meet MIL-D-3464E TYPE I & II requirements.
• Montmorillonite clay is a calcium aluminum silicate. It's natural & non-hazardous.
