In peptide products, specific types of desiccants are usually used to prevent moisture from affecting the product quality. According to the provided information, although the types of desiccants for peptide products were not directly mentioned, some desiccants widely used in the pharmaceutical and food industries can be referred to, which are also suitable for peptide products with strict requirements. The following are several common types of desiccants:
Silicone desiccant: This is a highly microporous structure of aqueous silica, non-toxic, odorless, chemically stable, and has strong moisture absorption properties. It is widely used in the storage and transportation of instruments, meters, equipment, leather, bags, shoes, textiles, food, drugs, etc. to control the relative humidity of the environment, prevent items from getting damp, moldy, and corroded. Silicone is the only desiccant certified by the US FDA for direct contact with drugs and food, making it highly suitable for drying peptide products.
Montmorillonite desiccant: This desiccant uses pure natural raw material bentonite, which is environmentally friendly, non-toxic and odorless, and has no harm to the human body. It has good adsorption performance at room temperature and general humidity, with adsorption activity and static dehumidification and odor removal effects. Not only does it have fast adsorption speed and high adsorption capacity, but it is also non-toxic, odorless, non corrosive, and environmentally friendly, especially when used in food packaging, which is harmless to human health. Suitable for dry air sealing of products that cannot be sealed with oil seals or gas phase, such as optical instruments, electronic products, medical and health care, food packaging, military and civilian products
The above two desiccants are ideal choices for peptide products due to their safety and efficient moisture absorption performance.
