What is added to packaging to absorb leaks?

Absorbent Cushioning Tape Desiccant

Correct Answer:

Absorbent

Explanation:

Absorbent materials are added to packaging to soak up liquids that escape from a container. They are designed to take in the leaked liquid, helping to contain spills, protect the product, and prevent environmental contamination. This is different from desiccants, which pull moisture from the air inside a package rather than absorbing a liquid leak. Cushioning protects against impact, not leaks, and tape's role is to seal rather than absorb. So the best choice is the absorbent.
