Desiccators are sealed containers that are used for drying samples under atmospheric pressure or vacuum pressure. These can also protect chemicals that are hygroscopic, as well as protect samples from dust and moisture in the air. Desiccators can be made of glass, polypropylene and polycarbonate, or acrylic in cabinet form. Below is a simple guide to desiccators.
