Deliquescence is the process by which a substance absorbs moisture from the atmosphere until it dissolves in the absorbed water and forms a solution. Deliquescence occurs when the vapour pressure of the solution that is formed is less than the partial pressure of water vapour in the air.
4 and two molecules of water of crystallization. [8] This species dissolves readily in water and alcohol. The anhydrous salt is hygroscopic and the hexahydrate is deliquescent. [citation needed] The dihydrate, CoCl 2 (H 2 O) 2, is a coordination polymer. Each Co center is coordinated to four doubly bridging chloride ligands.
A humectant / h juː ˈ m ɛ k t ən t / is a hygroscopic (water-absorbing) substance used to keep things moist. They are used in many products, including food, cosmetics, medicines and pesticides. When used as a food additive, a humectant has the effect of keeping moisture in the food. [1]
Secondly, Dessication has very little to do with Deliquescence, in spite of how many deliquescent materials are use for dessication. Dessication is a process for removing water; Deliquescence is a property of certain molecules. Merging would just provide confusion to viewers of the encyclopedia.

Alcohol is used as a social lubricant, maybe more so as holiday festivities approach. But drinking carries health and other risks. Here are five tips to make it safer.
Water is typically supplied to the fuel cell by humidifying the gas feed stream. The level of hydration within the proton exchange membrane is vital to its performance: if the hydration level is too low, the polymers exhibit greatly reduced ionic conductivity ; [ 25 ] if hydration level is too high, excess water can flood the pores in the gas ...
