traditionally made of glass, in which materials
may be stored either to dry them or to prevent
them, once dried, from reabsorbing moisture.
The base of the desiccator is a chamber in which
is placed a substance with a strong affinity for
water (such as calcium chloride or silica gel),
which removes water vapour from the desiccator
atmosphere and from substances placed in it.”
