How are Desiccants Best Utilized?
To be most effective desiccants should be used
within a closed / sealed moisture barrier or a
rigid, sealed container. This allows the desiccant
to absorb the trapped moisture vapor inside of
the package. Products should be packaged in a
manner that does not allow additional water vapor
in the enclosed environment. Often a Humidity
Control Card is placed inside the package to show
humidity levels and indicate when the desiccant
needs to be replaced.
Determining Types and Quantities of Required
Desiccant 1. Identify the type of container or
bag the product is packaged in
2. Calculate the volume or area of the container
3. Determine the amount of desiccant required
using the “Desiccant Requirement Chart”
(see chart on the opposite page)
4. Select the type of desiccant to fit the application
based on one of the following:
• Amount of moisture to be absorbed
• Permeability of packaged material
• Temperature and humidity
• Rate of absorption required
• Requires container shelf life
• Shipping and storage conditions
• Cost
Often customers will use more desiccant than is
required as a safety measure. Desiccants provide
low cost insurance.
