<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nighthawk, post: 378086, member: 6658&quot;]<b>Silica Jel</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Forgot to add... A few weeks ago I was doing some research on silica gel for my job (research chemist) and I was surprised to learn that silica gel can be used as a humidity buffer and maintain a humidity range between about 40% and 55% RH. During the very dry winter months, the silica gel will actually desorb water and raise the humidity in the container while still adsorbing moisture in the summer months. I am no expert, but the trick is to get the silica gel pre-conditioned to the right humidity prior to use in the container. For those that are interested, there is a great deal of research on the subject in relation to protecting artifacts on display in museum showcases.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Nighthawk[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
