Vätskedragande
Vätskedragande, often translated as hygroscopic, refers to the ability of a substance to attract and hold water molecules from the surrounding environment, such as the atmosphere. This property is due to the chemical nature of the substance, which may have an affinity for water molecules, or a porous structure that can absorb water.
Substances that are highly hygroscopic can absorb significant amounts of moisture, sometimes to the point of
The degree of hygroscopicity can vary widely. Some materials are only slightly hygroscopic, absorbing a small
