Help protect moisture sensitive devices

Moisture can corrode sensitive electronic and semiconductor devices, and lead to erratic performance or even failure.

This is a particular risk during the shipment of electronics across different climate conditions. Moisture in the ambient air within a device can precipitate out when the temperature drops during transport or storage. Humidity can also permeate through plastic in a device housing, or via a gap or leak.  In dry packing of moisture sensitive surface mount devices, a dry pack with an improper, defective, or damaged seal can expose devices and components to the damaging effects of moisture.

Clariant offers a full range of industry-leading desiccants, humidity indicator cards (HICs), and adsorbent technologies to protect your most sensitive devices. We also supply desiccants and humidity indicators for semiconductors and surface-mount devices that comply with standards established by the Joint Electron Device Engineering Council (JEDEC specification J-STD-033 for dry packing).
