Dry and safe – drying agents from EMD
EMD offers a comprehensive portfolio of drying agents for the drying of gases, liquids, and solids in chemical laboratories and in production, as well as, for the protection of stored or transported goods and materials from moisture damages, mold infestation, or corrosion.
Drying agents for nearly every application
To remove (non-chemically bound) water or other liquids, liquid-binding substances – "drying agents" or "desiccants" – are added to the substance to be dried. Among EMD’s wide range of drying products especially designed for use in laboratories, you will certainly find the most suitable desiccant for your individual application – from the drying of gases, analytical samples, absolute solvents or synthesis products to the transport and storage of moisture-sensitive products under constantly dry conditions. Regardless of your application, EMD is able to offer you drying agents with just the right properties in terms of rapid water uptake, particle size, pore size and pore distribution for optimal diffusion, water absorption capacity, or regeneration possibilities. EMD’s high-quality drying agents include calcium chloride, silica gel, molecular sieves, desiccant sachets, and many more.
Protecting your valuable goods
When goods and materials are transported or stored, they often have to be especially protected from moisture, corrosion, or mold infestation. In our drying agents portfolio, we offer a number of high-quality products for these purposes, e. g. desiccant sachets filled with silica gel. By protecting your valuable goods against damages, drying agents from EMD help to avoid consequential costs and increase the durability of your products. For instance, some of them maintain the function of sensitive optical, electrical and electronic components and keep e.g. edibles and agricultural products from perishing.
Secure and reliable drying
Drying agents from EMD are easy to use and suitable for classical static drying as well as for dynamic drying methods. For dynamic drying, EMD drying agents, with no susceptibility to clumping or deliquescence, such as calcium hydride, magnesium perchlorate, aluminium oxide, silica gel, or molecular sieves, are particularly suitable.
