| 31. | Because of its high affinity for water, KOH serves as a desiccant in the laboratory.
|
| 32. | Although some desiccants are chemically inert, many are extremely reactive and require specialized handling techniques.
|
| 33. | The ketyl radicals derived from the reaction of sodium and benzophenone is a common laboratory desiccant.
|
| 34. | Calcium hydride is a relatively mild desiccant and, compared to molecular sieves, probably inefficient.
|
| 35. | Because of the lack of compressor parts desiccant dehumidifiers are often lighter and quieter than compressor dehumidifiers.
|
| 36. | Desiccants are used in different kinds of livestock farming to dry newborn animals, such as piglets.
|
| 37. | Another form of electronic dry box technology utilizes multi-porous molecular sieve desiccants to adsorb moisture.
|
| 38. | :: Adding rice, or another non-toxic desiccant might help prevent the clumping too.
|
| 39. | The most common desiccant is silica, an otherwise inert, nontoxic, water-insoluble white solid.
|
| 40. | This phenomenon was thought to be caused by duct tape securing desiccant bags to the turbine exhaust pipe.
