Which driers are suitable for drying PLEXIGLAS^® molding compounds?

Should the supplied molding compound show too high a moisture content for processing after prolonged storage (bubbles or streaking), predrying is recommended. If the recommended drying temperatures and minimum drying times are observed, simple ovens with or without airflow are sufficient, but shorter drying times are obtained with so-called desiccant-type driers. Vacuum cabinets are often preferred in climates with high atmospheric humidity. Small portable units with high performance are available in addition to stationary units.
