Desiccant is a drying agent used to lower the moisture content of air
inside a closed space, such as a Moisture Barrier Bag. Desiccant is
packaged in fractional units in order to facilitate its usage with a variety of
bag sizes. One full “unit” of packaged desiccant will absorb the following
quantities of water at equilibrium with air at 77°F (25°C): 3.00 grams @
20% rH and 6.00 grams @ 40% rH, when tested to MIL-D-3464.
In order to provide a complete moisture barrier packaging assembly,
desiccant must be inserted into the bag, prior to having the bag vacuum
sealed. The recommended amount of desiccant is dependent on the
interior surface area of the bag to be used. Figure 4 is a reference table
indicating recommended minimum amounts of desiccant that should be
used with Moisture Barrier Bags.

REACH Directive 1907/2006/CE
This material should be considered an “article” under the REACH guidelines. None
of the substances listed as “Substances of Very High Concern” (SVHC) are
intentionally added in its manufacturing.
“...it is important to take possible temperature exposure into account when shipping
electronic parts. It is particularly important to consider what happens to the interior
of a package if the environment has high humidity. If the temperature varies across
the dew point of the established interior environment of the package, condensation
may occur. The interior of a package should either contain desiccant or the air
should be evacuated from the package during the sealing process. The package
itself should have a low WVTR.” (ESD Handbook ESD TR20.20 section 5.4.3.2.2)
Desiccant paks sold by Protektive Pak meet the requirements
of MIL-D-3464.

SECTION IV -- FIRE EXPLOSION DATA
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD - Negligible fire and explosion hazard when exposed to heat
or flame by reaction with incompatible substances.
FLASH POINT - Nonflammable.
FIREFIGHTING MEDIA - Dry chemical, water spray, or foam. For larger fires, use water spray
fog or foam.
FIREFIGHTING - Nonflammable solids, liquids or gasses: Cool containers that are exposed
to flames with water from the side until well after fire is out. For massive fire in enclosed area,
use unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles; if this is impossible, withdraw from area and
let fire burn. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or any
discoloration of the tank due to fire.

SECTION V -- HEALTH HAZARD DATA
This material is normally packaged and contained in a bag. If the bag is open, the resulting
dust is classified a nuisance dust, and may cause health hazards when inhaled, ingested or in
contact with the eyes and skin. Prolonged inhalation may cause irritation to the upper respiratory
tract and/or lung damage. If large amounts are ingested, intestinal disorders may occur. Contact
with eye tissue may result in irritation.
Prolonged or repeated contact with the skin in the absence or proper hygiene may cause
irritation.

clay may contain a small amount of crystalline silica (quartz). Inhalation of crystalline
silica in the respirable range in excess of the TLV may result in an increase in the risk of serious
respiratory disease. Avoid breathing the dust. Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators when the
TLV for crystalline silica may be exceeded.
FIRST AID (INHALATION)
- Remove to fresh air immediately. If breathing has stopped, give
artificial respiration. Keep affected person warm and at rest. Get medical attention immediately.
FIRST AID (INGESTION)
- If large amounts have been ingested, give emetics to cause
vomiting. Stomach siphon may be applied as well. Milk and fatty acids should be avoided. Get
medical attention immediately.
FIRST AID (EYES)
- Wash eyes immediately and carefully for 30 minutes with running water,
lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Get prompt medical attention.
FIRST AID (SKIN)
- To avoid repeated or prolonged contact with this chemical, use good
hygienic practices. Wash with soap and a large amount of water. Get medical attention if
irritation or inflammation develops

INGREDIENT HAZARD STATEMENT
- This product contains less than 1% crystalline quartz
(CAS #14808-60-7), which is in a non-respirable form. The product is in granular form, and
packed in bags for use as a desiccant. Therefore, no exposure to quartz or clay dust is
anticipated under normal use of this product.
CARCINOGENICITY
NTP? No
OSHA? No
Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause lung injury. Unless otherwise noted, all values
are reported as 8-hour Time Weighted Averages (TWA’s) and total dust (particulates only). All
ACGIH TLV’s refer to the 1989-90 Standards. All OSHA PEL’s refer to 49 CFR Part 1910 Air
Contaminants: Final Rule, January 19, 1989.
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA
REACTIVITY
- Is stable under normal temperatures and pressures in sealed containers.
Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
