Montmorillonite Clay Desiccant

Montmorillonite Clay is the least expensive of all

desiccants and is a naturally occurring non-hazardous
mineral
Montmorillonite Clay is used in most industrial
applications requiring humidity control because it
recharges easily and does not swell as it adsorbs
water vapor.
This desiccant works well at low and room
temperatures, but has a low ceiling temperature.
At 120 F montmorillonite clay will begin to desorb or
shed the moisture it has absorbed, an important
consideration for storage in hot areas.
Desiccants on their own can be extremely effective,
although they work better when used in combination
with moisture barrier bags.
Different moisture barrier bag materials come with
different MVTR ratings.
The most effective moisture barrier bag material has
an MVTR rating of 0.02, meaning that only 0.02
grams of moisture can penetrate the material over a
24-hour period in 95 percent humidity.
