Abstract
An adhesive desiccant deposit comprising a hot melt adhesive and a desiccant dispersed within the hot melt adhesive. The hot melt adhesive has sufficient porosity to allow water molecules to pass into the hot melt adhesive and contact the desiccant. The hot melt adhesive may optionally contain an additive to increase the porosity of the hot melt adhesive. One particular application of the deposit involves an adhesive desiccant tape comprising a substrate, a first adhesive layer disposed on the bottom of the substrate, a removable liner disposed on the first adhesive layer on the side of the first adhesive layer away from the substrate, and an adhesive desiccant deposit disposed on the top of the substrate.
