moisture absorbing desiccant
Desiccants are said as those substances which have the ability to absorb moisture and odor. Having excellent absorption capacity it has the capacity to maintain the originality of the product by preventing any microbial activities. Although moisture is present everywhere, but its presence at unnecessary places can prove to be quite disastrous. Most of the desiccants are available in granular or powdered form. The reason that these desiccants are in this form is that in this way it gets more surface area for absorption. This form allows the desiccant to absorb more moisture content from the atmosphere. However these desiccants cannot be used loosely, so they are used in packets. Now the size of the packets depends on the requirement. You must have seen small packets of moisture absorbing desiccant in leather jackets, plastic containers. While at the same time huge bags of desiccants are also used while transportation that is cargo in a ship.
