Dessicant means something that is used for drying. It is linked to the word dessicated as in 'dessicated coconut'. It is something with the hygroscopic ability that draws out the moisture from something nearby so will dry things in with it if it is in a sealed container.
A dessicant is a substance used to absorb moisture from the air or other materials. It helps to keep things dry and prevent mold or spoilage by absorbing excess humidity. Common dessicants include silica gel and calcium chloride.
A word that has the same meaning as another word is a synonym.
Some words that contain the root word "onym" are synonym (meaning a word with a similar meaning), antonym (meaning a word with the opposite meaning), and homonym (meaning a word that sounds the same but has a different meaning).
The word "pestilence" has a root meaning plague, which comes from the Latin word "pestis" meaning plague.
The root word meaning "nerve" is "neur-" from the Greek word "neuron" meaning sinew or nerve.
A synonym is a word with a meaning similar to that of another word.
dessicant bag
it removes moisture from the AC system by using a package of dessicant inside it. dessicant is an absorbent material that removes the moisture
A dessicant
Anhydrous calcium chloride (CaCl2) is extremely hygroscopic, meaning it readily adsorbs water or moisture from the surroundings. Therefore, calcium chloride is commonly used as a dessicant.
chemical dryer - a very hygroscopic dessicant
Phosphorus pentoxide a powerful dessicant. In its comon form it is P2O5.
An AC accumulators job is to remove moisture from the AC system it performs this function with a package of dessicant inside it. Dessicant is a compound that absorbs the moisture around it. An accumulators job is also store excess refrigerant not being utilized by the evaporator.

You can spread the silica dessicant (whether in dessicant packs or loose) in a thin layer on a baking sheet and heat in the oven at about 250F for one to three hours. Do not set the temperature too high as they will start to lose their effectiveness. If they turn black, they have been overheated. Temperatures under 280F should be fine. If the crystals are loose, they will dry more quickly. Dessicant that changes colour from blue (dry) to pink has been doped with cobalt chloride, which could be a carcinogen, so keep the dessicant packs intact if the silica gel has a blue, purple or pink colour. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desiccant http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silica_gel
Hygroscopic substances are chemicals that are easily dissolvable in water. One way in which they are used is as a dessicant.
