| CORROSION
If the air over the surface has a relative humidity below 50%RH it can prevent iron and steel rusting.  CONDENSATION Condensation will not appear on surface if the air in contact with it has a dew point lower than the surface temperature.  ICE FORMATION A surface will not have ice formation on it if the air in contact with it has a dew point lower than the surface temperature.  Moisture In The Building With sorption dehumidifying the moisture is taken out from the building. It will keep the room or building from wet. MOULD Mould and fungus formation is prevented if the surrounding air is kept below 70%RH.  |
ELECTRONICS At high relative humidity, the characteristics of electronic products are changed.  BACTERIA Bacteria need humidity to survive and multiply. Often these conditions are found on hygroscopic material. If the surrounding air relative humidity is held below 50%RH most bacteria will not find a suitable environment to multiply.   ODOURS Bad smell will be drastically reduced if the relative humidity is kept below 50%RH.   |
