J.T.Baker providesa desiccant that does twice as much: GRANUSIC Twice as much as what? As the carrier-based P 2 0 5 ( - 4 5 % ) does. GRANUSIC, as pure P 2 0 5 , in static drying provides you twice the total capacity. And it maintains a high rate of moisture pickup longer. Since GRANUSIC does more, it saves you more. You save time when you have to replace desiccant less frequently. And you save on storage and shipping costs, too. And GRANUSIC, because it is granular, offers you these distinct advantages over the powdered pentoxide as a desiccant: • Greater utilization, since moisture is taken up as a film over the individual granules rather than over the top surface. • Slower and more controlled reaction with water. • Easier removal from drying apparatus of the spent product. • Better shelf life. And GRANUSIC, as a 'Baker Analyzed' Phosphorus Pentoxide meeting A. C. S. reagent specifications, not only has high efficiency as a desiccant but can be substituted for the powdered pentoxide in non-drying applications.
