Inc. Moisture barrier bags Moisture can penetrate semiconductors when they are subjected to high relative humidity conditions. These commonly occur when chips are shipped overseas or are stored for extended periods in even mild humidity conditions.
Desiccant is used to absorb moisture.
When desiccant is placed inside packaging designed to minimize the amount of moisture that can pass through it, the desiccant can effectively absorb virtually all of the moisture that is trapped inside the package. Typically, several factors are taken into consideration when calculating the appropriateness and efficacy of desiccant. The maximum allowable interior humidity of the product package is calculated. The type of desiccant is determined based on product requirements. Click here to connect to the Static Control Components WWW page.
