  2. Hygroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopy

    Deliquescent materials are sufficiently hygroscopic that they dissolve in the water they absorb, forming an aqueous solution. Hygroscopy is essential for many plant and animal species' attainment of hydration, nutrition, reproduction and/or seed dispersal .

  3. Efflorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efflorescence

    Primary efflorescence is named such, as it typically occurs during the initial cure of a cementitious product. It often occurs on masonry construction, particularly brick, as well as some firestop mortars, when water moving through a wall or other structure, or water being driven out as a result of the heat of hydration as cement stone is being formed, brings salts to the surface that are not ...

  4. Hygroscopic cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopic_cycle

    The selection of hygroscopic salts have to provide the following strict criteria in order to be of interest of use in the hygroscopic cycle: Highly hygroscopic compounds, deliquescent materials; Less volatile than water (vapor pressure lower than water), with easily reversible desorption into water and steam in the boiler

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt(II)_chloride

    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.

  6. Iron(III) chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(III)_chloride

    Ferric chloride form hydrates upon exposure to water, reflecting its Lewis acidity. All hydrates exhibit deliquescence , meaning that they become liquid by absorbing moisture from the air. Hydration invariably gives derivatives of aquo complexes with the formula [FeCl 2 (H 2 O) 4 ] + .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humectant

    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]
