Silica Gel

Silica gel is one of the oldest and most popular desiccant and adsorbent used for a wide number of industrial and consumer applications. Silica Gel is a very porous form of silica gel with a great deal of internal surface area. It is a tasteless, odorless, non-toxic, non-corrosive, and chemically inert substance. It is a highly activated adsorbent that is available in numerous mesh sizes designed for many uses in industry. During adsorption, there is no chemical reaction in the silica gel, and no byproducts are created. Silica gel is non-deliquescent, and its shape and size never change. Its outer surfaces stay dry and it remains free-flowing, even when it is saturated with water. Silica gel white - (Non-Indicating Type Silica Gel)is a type, where most of the particles of Silica Gel are not impregnated with any Indicating Agents and when particles get free from moisture, it goes transparent white. In other words, it turns into milky or hazy white when it is out to use, because it catches moisture when exposed to environment Silica gel is an amorphous form of silicon dioxide, which is synthetically produced in the form of hard irregular granules (having the appearance of crystals) or hard regular beads. The beauty of silica gel is the physical adsorption of water vapour into its internal pores. There is no chemical reaction, no by products or side effects. Even when saturated with water vapour, silica gel still has the appearance of a dry product, its shape unchanged. Applications Packing Industries Valves preservation Pressure vessel Manufacturers.
