Abstract

In this paper, different morphologies of diatomaceous earth (disc, cylindrical) were purified, and characterized by SEM, BET and pore size distribution, and moisture absorption and desorption tests were carried out. The results show that the humidity control performance of the cylindrical diatomite sample is better than that of the disc-shaped diatomite sample. Its 24h moisture absorption, 24h moisture release, volumetric moisture content ratio, average volumetric moisture content and other indicators all exceed Disc-shaped diatomite samples; the specific surface area of cylindrical diatomite samples is higher than that of disc-shaped diatomite samples, and the pore size distribution is more reasonable. Combined with the analysis of humidity control performance, cylindrical diatomite samples are more suitable As an excellent humidity control material.
