  2. Hygroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopy

    Super hygroscopic polymer films composed of biomass and hygroscopic salts are able to condense moisture from atmospheric humidity. [16] By implementing rapid sorption-desorption kinetics and operating 14–24 cycles per day, this technique produced an equivalent water yield of 5.8–13.3 L kg −1 of sustainable raw materials, demonstrating the ...

  3. Efflorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efflorescence

    Gypsum (CaSO 4.2H 2 O) is a hydrate solid that, in a sufficiently dry environment, will give up its water to the gas phase and form anhydrite (CaSO 4). Copper(II) sulfate (bluestone) (CuSO 4 .5H 2 O) is a blue crystalline solid that when exposed to air, slowly loses water of crystallization from its surface to form a white layer of anhydrous ...

  4. Talk:Hygroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Hygroscopy

    Hygroscopic is a property of a substance to absorb or adsorb water from its surrounding (one example of this would be dessicator type of compounds). [2] And finally in this volume of scientific american they seem to refer to a hygroscope as an instrument measuring if there is water in the air & a hygrometer as an instrument which quantifies the ...

  5. Manganese(II) sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manganese(II)_sulfate

    mno 2 + so 2 + h 2 o → mnso 4 (h 2 o) It can also be made by mixing potassium permanganate with sodium hydrogen sulfate and hydrogen peroxide . Manganese sulfate is a by-product of various industrially significant oxidations that use manganese dioxide, including the manufacture of hydroquinone and anisaldehyde .

  6. Hygroscopic cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopic_cycle

    The air-cooler used in the hygroscopic cycle cools a liquid flow with concentrated hygroscopic compound, with an overall volumetric heat capacity much higher than the steam traditionally condensed in the air cooled condenser mentioned earlier, thus reducing the power needed for ventilation, [8] and needing less surface area for heat exchange ...

  7. Potassium citrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_citrate

    Potassium citrate (also known as tripotassium citrate) is a potassium salt of citric acid with the molecular formula K 3 C 6 H 5 O 7. It is a white, hygroscopic crystalline powder. It is odorless with a saline taste. It contains 38.28% potassium by mass. In the monohydrate form, it is highly hygroscopic and deliquescent.

  8. Benzenesulfonic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzenesulfonic_acid

    Benzenesulfonic acid (conjugate base benzenesulfonate) is an organosulfur compound with the formula C 6 H 6 O 3 S.It is the simplest aromatic sulfonic acid.It forms white deliquescent sheet crystals or a white waxy solid that is soluble in water and ethanol, slightly soluble in benzene and insoluble in nonpolar solvents like diethyl ether.

  9. Potassium formate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_formate

    This strongly hygroscopic white solid [2] is an intermediate in the formate potash process for the production of potassium. [3] Potassium formate has also been studied as a potential environmentally friendly deicing salt for use on roads. [4] [5] It has also been suggested for use in a less corrosive liquid desiccant. [6]
