What are the conditions for mold growth on items? How to solve them?
1. Humidity: The mold can grow when the relative humidity of the environment is greater than 60%. When the RH is greater than 65%, the growth is accelerated, and when the humidity reaches RH80-95%, it is an environment with a high incidence of mold.
2. Temperature: mold mycelium can grow at an ambient temperature above 8 degrees, and grow faster above 12 degrees. When the temperature is above 10 degrees and the humidity is above 60%, molds can cause damage to items. When the temperature is 20-35 degrees and the humidity is 75-95%, the mold can grow explosively.
3. Nutrients: Molds need very little nutrients. Carbon, nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, sulfur, magnesium, etc. are essential nutrients for molds. Molds can also absorb all the basic elements of inorganic salt sources. When the article contains the nutrients required by the above-mentioned molds, and the temperature and humidity of the environment are suitable for the development of spores, mold can grow.
In a relatively closed environment, using a desiccant to absorb moisture is a relatively efficient and convenient way to prevent moisture. There are various types of desiccants on the market. It is recommended to use calcium chloride desiccant to reduce the damage of desiccants to items. There are many types of desiccant. It is recommended to use calcium chloride environmentally friendly desiccant to reduce the damage of desiccant to items.
