    TFtusave IF you let them soak in water over a few hours you can use them to transport cut flowers I belive, the same can be done with wraping a lightly soaked pad(for incontinence or period I dont know IF which one is better) but that isnt what we are talking about, so anyway they can be used to keep things dry or lightly moist but dont use it with food your planning to eat. I wonder IF you soak a LOT of them then put it in bags in the freezer you can probably use them as an alternative to using normal Ice storage for beer cans theory wise it might not unfreeze as fast as normal ice, remember Im just guessing. But a better alternative to ice storage then small ice Cubes is to take a tray for cupcakes and fill with water because the bigger an ice cube is the slower it will melt you can also use emty 500ml plastic bottles(soda,Coke types) fill them with water but save a few cm because ice expands when freezing.

    These packs lose the ability to absorb after a while a short while if in open air or large space. For these to be effective, place them in a 200° oven for about 30 min. Less for small packs. This dries and reactivates the gel. Do this every so often, depending on amount of exposure to air. And a great use is putting them in open ammunition packages/boxes to preserve your ammo.

    I found a phone in local drainage stream (dropped the previous night by an elderly neighbour when he was pulled into the stream by his big labrador). I fished it out, washed it in the sink, took out the battery and left it all to dry on the radiator and after a day or two charged it athough the display was a bit steamy. I dialled the home number and found out who it belonged to! It didn't sound too great but at least he got it back. Want another example? I once left a Russian camera (Zenith B) on the beach and the tide came in. I opened it up, took out the film canister, washed the camera inside and out it in a basin of fresh water to remove sand and salt, then poured methylated spirit (neat alcohol) into it several times to remove water. Dried out from alcohol it still worked! Film was wasted though. Camera was very grindy so I gave it away. :-)

  • @writerpatrick
    @writerpatrick7 жыл бұрын

    If you're drying out electronics it helps to wash or spray them with rubbing alcohol. The alcohol will wash away much of the water then evaporate. You may also want to wipe off the electronics afterwards to prevent dirt accumulating when it dries. You can make your own desiccant using a mixture of salt and uncooked rice (both on their own will work but together they're more effective). Wrap it in a paper towel. It may not work as effectively as silica gel but it's environmentally safe and you could eat it (but wouldn't want to). It may give a slightly salty smell. One really good use of a desiccant is to remove the moldy smell from papers, magazines and books. Just put the documents in a zip-lock bag with the desiccant. It may take a number of months to work but you'll find the smell will disappear.

    You can also use them to keep real silverware from tarnishing. I keep several in the box with mine. They only need a quick wipe before use. As opposed to spending hours the day before polishing them.

    Although some of those uses were pretty cool, I was expecting a LOT more!! I expected uses that didn't have anything to do with absorbing moisture. Not 1 use on here was about using it in a different way.

    lol,what's supposed to be surprising about using a dessicant as a dessicant? for something interresting: you can (and have to) re-dry silicagel in the oven at 120°C, if you wanna kepe using it. it becomes saturated - the water doesnt just magically disappear. the cheapest source for silicagel is silica based cat litter, which is coarse silicagel. and you can also use it to remove water along with water soluable impurities from comtaminated solvents, oils or liquid fuels.

    For long term critical+sealed storage use silica gel packages in conjunction with anti-oxidant packages. I save the latter from beefy jerky, but you find them in many dry food items. The finely ground iron dust inside absorbs oxygen. Doesn't work if typical ziplock bags are used, they transmit oxygen fairly easily through their polyethylene structure. Sealed = metal or metallized containers, o-ring sealed or threaded heavy plastics or glass.
