Our Goal: To evaluate and report the performance of a product identified as DampRid®, and to make a comparison of performance to our Dri-It® pouch, under identical conditions of 40°C and 90% RH. Pure Calcium Chloride (CaCl2) was tested as a control.
The products were carefully opened, observed, and inspected. Dimensions and characteristics were recorded. The DampRid® products were placed in the humidity chamber at the conditions 40°C, 90% RH for eight days. The products were weighed, observed, and photographed throughout the duration of the test.
The DampRid® products gained moisture but the
majority was gained within the first day and then the rate began to
level off, while the Dri-It® product continued to gain absorbed moisture
for the duration of the testing period.
