desikantcoated
Desikantcoated is a term used to describe a coating that incorporates desiccant material applied as a thin, active layer on a substrate to provide moisture control. This approach aims to localize humidity management and reduce the need for separate desiccant carriers such as sachets, films, or pads. Desikant-coated materials are used where compactness, controlled humidity, or integrated moisture management are priorities.
Coatings typically use inert, porous desiccants such as silica gel, activated alumina, molecular sieves (zeolites), calcium
Applications include electronic device packaging, pharmaceutical and food packaging, medical devices, textiles, and coatings for humidity-sensitive
Advantages include reduced risk of powder leakage, integration into packaging lines, and localized humidity control. Limitations
