RH of 65% - what salt to use?

Dear sirs,

I would like to know how I can have in a closed room an RH of 65%, what sort of salt I have to use ? And what should be the concentration of the salt ?

Best regards,

Giorgio Mardegan

Sodium nitrate is stated to give 66% at 70 degrees F. All such salt control systems use a saturated solution.
