What are you trying to protect the I/C's from??? If it is a moisture issue, you should probably store them in a low humidity incubator. These are quite readily avalible and can be promoted as either an incubator of humidity chamber. The idea is just to maintain a humidity of 15% or lower (I think) at ambient. If it is simply a static issue, I tend to agree with Eric.
