	Desiccation Desiccation is the state of extreme dryness, or the process of extreme drying. A desiccator is a glass jar used in practical chemistry for making or keeping small amounts of material very dry. The material is placed on a shelf, and a drying agent or desiccant, such as dry silica gel or anhydrous caustic soda, is placed below the shelf. Desiccated coconut is the dried, finely shredded flesh of the coconut, much used in cooking desserts.
