|
| It is somewhat hygroscopic or absorbs water from the atmosphere. |
|
| In addition to causing porosity and embrittlement, salt inclusions accelerate corrosion due to their hygroscopic nature. |
|
| Brake fluid is hygroscopic, i.e. it absorbs moisture from the air. |
|
| The combined use of surface and subsurface moisture sensors allows you to map, limit and classify complex relationÂships, e.g. hygroscopic humidity occurrences due to salt build-up or to locate seal breaches and leaks. |
|
| A highly hygroscopic molecule, hyaluronic acid can retain up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, and thus contributes to giving the skin more elasticity and improved hydration. |
|
|
|
| Short distances prevent errors in measurement that result from evaporation of volatile water components, or from absorption of humidity in hygroscopic samples. |
|
| Many of the simple salts are hygroscopic, but less so than the corresponding salts of lighter alkali metals. |
