Title: Desiccant mixture compositions

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1568315

The invention pertains to desiccants within improved adsorption. The desiccants of the invention include silica, aluminum, bicarbonate and calcium. The addition of calcium increases the porosity of the resulting precipitated solid, which increases the adsorption properties. The invention also pertains to methods of preventing moisture damage to a chattel placed in an enclosed environment by placing the desiccant of the invention into the enclosed environment.
