Will silica gel stop absorbing water when the RH reaches a certain level?
Because once the RH in my drybox reaches 48%... it doesn't drop anymore. Yet when I opened it up to check the silica gel it is bluish purple. Nowhere near pink.
I used a hair dryer to get it more to blue than purple... and again the RH stops at 48%.
So I'm just wondering... will a silica gel regulate the humidity by halting the absorption process?
