Desiccators create and maintain dry environments to ensure sample stability. Using absorbing beads, and other desiccants, desiccator cabinets or apparatuses quickly absorb moisture, guaranteeing sensitive materials do not react to surroundings prior to testing. Vacuum compatible models accelerate drying of interior conditions. Desiccators are manufactured of clear materials to enable constant monitoring without exposure and may come in UV blocking amber tint. Reusable desiccators are available in a variety of capacities and may feature attached hygrometers.
