Control of Humidity with Potassium Hydroxide, Sulphuric Acid, or other Solutions

Abstract: Methods of preparing solutions of graded density for the accurate control of atmospheric relative humidity are described, and some pitfalls in their use and in the use of saturated salt solutions are indicated.For graded solutions of potassium hydroxide and of sulphuric acid, data from the International Critical Tables or more recent sources are used as the basis of tables giving the concentrations (wt.%) and densities corresponding to relative humidities in steps of 5 per cent. R.H. Sources of similar data fo… Show more

“…The collection was done from January, 2012 to June, 2012. Those ticks were then brought to laboratory and transferred to desiccator in which 80-85 % relative humidity was maintained using 10 % KOH (Solomon 1951). The desiccator was kept in incubator at a constant temperature at 28°C.…”

“…A saturated sait (NaCl) solution was placed in the bottom of each desiccator to maintain a relative humidity in the desiccator of 75 ± 5% at room température (Solomon 1951). Relative humidity was verified with a Vaisala Humidity and Tempéra-ture indicator (HMI -32).…”

“…Treatments were applied a powdery mildew (Erysiphe graminis DC) to kernels after storage under a range of fungus (Bushnell 1971), a procedure for moisture conditions, since the degree of eliminating microflora from barley kernels sterilization generaliy depended on th"ir Can' J. Plant Sci, 53: 47.52 (Jan. 1973) (Solomon 1951). Equilibration with the moisture in the air was obtained within a 3-wk period as determined in a separate trial.…”
