As humidity increases, the larger pores will begin to fill. Unlike a sponge, however, Sorb-It remains dry even at maximum capacity. In addition to adsorbing more at higher humidity levels, Sorb-It will also adsorb more as the time period increases. Type I and II for use in Method II Packaging Mil P-116. These odors and gases are removed through the process of adsorption.
Many products contain gas and odor molecules of an objectionable nature.
Their chemical nature draws them to the activated carbon located within the Getter Package. Through adsorption, Getter protects several types of products ranging from pharmaceuticals to electronics. They have a uniform pore structure which enables them to separate molecules by size. Water molecules, for example, are adsorbed strongly by Tri-Sorb because they possess a higher degree of polarity and have the proper molecular size for entrance into the sieves' pores. The structure of Tri-Sorb provides a higher capacity for water adsorption than either silica gel or clay at low humidity levels.
