What is Clay Desiccant?

Is a natural desiccant. It is widely used to protect products in industry. It is mined in a mine and then ground into a granular form. The seeds are then dried in an oven to remove all traces of moisture. Therefore, the product has been disposed of. Pre-packed in many desiccant packets with various weights.
Chunwang Clay Desiccant meets BS7529:1991 standards of dryness and adsorption capacity.

Features of Clay Desiccant

The Advantages of Using Clay Desiccant

Cost-effective

Clay desiccant packets are a cost-effective solution for moisture and humidity control. They are relatively less expensive than other desiccants, such as silica gel or molecular sieve. This makes them an ideal choice for businesses on a budget, who want to protect their products from moisture damage.

Natural and Eco-friendly

Clay is a natural material that is extracted from the earth. It does not contain any harmful chemicals or toxins, making it a safe option for use in various industries. Unlike other desiccants that are made of synthetic materials, clay is biodegradable and can be safely disposed of without causing harm to the environment.

High Adsorption Capacity

Clay desiccant packets have a high adsorption capacity, which means they can effectively absorb moisture and humidity from the surrounding environment. The packets work by attracting water molecules to their surface, where they are trapped and held. This capacity makes them highly suitable for use in packaging, storage, and shipping applications, where protection against moisture is crucial.

Safe for Food and Pharmaceuticals

In the food and pharmaceutical industries, it is vital to ensure that the products are not contaminated by any harmful substances. Clay desiccant packets are non-corrosive and non-toxic, making them an ideal choice for these sensitive applications. In addition, they can help extend the shelf life of perishable goods, ensuring they remain fresh and safe for consumption.

Easy to Use

Clay desiccant packets are easy to use and require no special handling or preparation. Simply place them in the desired location, and they will begin absorbing moisture immediately. They can be used in various settings, including industrial, commercial, and residential applications. You do not need any additional equipment or expertise to use them, making them a convenient option for moisture control.

How to Dry Clay Desiccant Packs

►Check desiccant packs weekly to see if they need recharged.

►When rigid or an increase in weight is noted (over 30%), regenerate in the oven.

●Important: Do not use a microwave oven.

●250 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 hours removes roughly 80% moisture.

●250 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 hours removes most moisture.

●250 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 hours removes most moisture from very heavy/stiff packs.

►Let packs cool before handling.

►Place your desiccant packs into service or store in a sealable poly-bag.

Common Problems

Q: What is the purpose of a desiccant?

A: Desiccants are commonly used to keep products dry and stable. Dry desiccants can absorb moisture from air either by physical adsorption or by chemical reaction, and thus reduce the humidity in the headspace of sealed containers.

Q: Can clay desiccant be reused?

A: The clay has a good adsorption capacity within normal temperature and relative humidity ranges. Activated clay retains its structure as it becomes saturated and can be easily reactivated for re-use by heating. The main disadvantage of this material is its ability to give up moisture at low temperatures.

Q: Can you recharge clay desiccant?

A: You can do so by pouring the inactive silica gel beads in a thin layer on a baking sheet. You should then preheat the oven to 175 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the beads for 15 minutes. The heat in the oven will draw the moisture out from the desiccant material and reactivate the drying agent.

Q: How long can you use desiccant?

A: Adsorbent desiccants can last up to 3-5 years provided you maintain contaminant-free air entering the dryer. It is imperative to have a good single or dual-stage inlet filtration to remove any contaminants to prevent them from entering the regenerative dryer.

Q: Is clay desiccant food safe?

A: Due to Food Grade, clay desiccant are completely safe to be in physical contact with any food, medicine, diagnostics reagent and health care products.

Q: What is the shelf life of clay desiccant?

A: Desiccant shelf life, when stored in its original protective packaging, is typically 1-5 years. The shelf life depends upon the level of its protective packaging.

Q: Can you dry desiccant in a microwave?

A: Avoid high power settings as overheating can damage the gel and render it unable to absorb moisture. Packaged desiccants should not be microwaved.

Q: How do you know if desiccant is still good?

A: Pull the desiccant beads out and squish them between your fingers. If they are very brittle and crumble upon doing so, they're bad and need to be replaced. Take a Styrofoam cup, fill it with about 1 inch of desiccant beads, and pour water on them, just enough to cover them or leave a few above the water.

Q: What is clay desiccant made of?

A: Clay desiccant is a material of natural origin. It is chemically inert, non-corrosive and is composed mainly of calcium and magnesium aluminium silicates.

Q: What is food-grade desiccant?

A: Food-grade clay desiccant utilize natural montmorillonite as raw material. Montmorillonite has stable chemical and physical characteristics and is non-toxic and non-hazardous. Its moisture absorption capacity is stronger than silica gel desiccant in low humidity.

Q: How do I choose a desiccant?

A: An important factor in the efficiency of the selected desiccant is the bag material (cover stock) of the desiccant. The cover stock must allow the desiccant to do its job without harming the product. This means maintaining an acceptable adsorption rate and conforming to the product's dusting requirements.

Q: What is desiccant Mont clay used for?

A: Montmorillonite clay is used in most industrial applications requiring humidity control because it recharges easily and does not swell as it adsorbs water vapor.

Q: Can activated clay desiccant be reused?

Q: Should I remove desiccant?

A: If you're concerned about accidentally swallowing the desiccant in your container, ask your pharmacist before removing it, especially if it's a container with several months supply of capsules that you'll have for a while. Throwing out the desiccant could, over time, compromise the quality of the drug.

Q: How do you know if desiccant is still good?

A: Pull the desiccant beads out and squish them between your fingers. If they are very brittle and crumble upon doing so, they're bad and need to be replaced. Take a styrofoam cup, fill it with about 1 inch of desiccant beads, and pour water on them, just enough to cover them or leave a few above the water.

Q: Is it safe to touch desiccant?

A: There are actually a lot of uses for them around the house. A quick note about that safety warning you see all the time: Clear silica gel pellets are nontoxic and fairly safe to handle.

Q: What is a common desiccant?

A: The most common desiccant is silica gel, an otherwise inert, nontoxic, water-insoluble white solid. Tens of thousands of tons are produced annually for this purpose. Other common desiccants include activated charcoal, calcium sulfate, calcium chloride, and molecular sieves (typically, zeolites).

Q: How does clay desiccant work?

A: Clay desiccants from Chunwang are chemically inert, dehydrating agents that prevent corrosion and mildew by absorbing moisture from the air of an enclosed space. In other words, clay desiccants are used to dehumidify the inside of your package.

Q:Can you use too much desiccant?

A: The quantity of desiccant to be used is important because an insufficient quantity will not provide the required protection, while excessive use of desiccant may lead to over-drying and an unnecessary increase in product cost. In many cases, overuse of desiccant is not a problem for product quality.

Q: How long can desiccant be stored?

A: While desiccant bags don't have a set expiration date, most desiccant bags last between 1 and 3 years. Outside factors, such as the environment they're exposed to, can shift this timeframe as well.
