Hygroscope-P is Calcium Oxide in powder form, with a purity of 95 %. The function of Hygroscope-P is to absorb moisture and eliminate moisture related problems in plastics and rubber applications. It can be used as a desiccant in PE/PP masterbatches, rubber compounds and PVC plastisols. Calcium Oxide forms Calcium Hydroxide once it absorbs water. Applications for Calcium Oxide are listed as follows: ? Desiccant masterbatch production ? Filler masterbatch to extend the shelf life of the product and to absorb moisture in raw materials ? Plastics recycling ? Pressureless, continuous curing systems such as microwave, LCM, hot air and fluid beds. ? Wastewater treatment ? Low pressure curing in the cable industry ? Construction chemicals where moisture must be eliminated
