Product Description
Silica Gel For Variable Pre is a type of amorphous & porous form of SiO2 with large surface area. It is most commonly utilized as a desiccant for absorption of moisture. This silica gel is provided in uniform size beads that are packed before use. It is also known to find application in various analytical chemistry analyses including chromatography. Silica serves as the best stationary phase for column chromatography technique. Being virtually odorless in nature, it is also widely used as cat litter. In high frequency radio & transmission systems, Silica Gel For Variable Pre is utilized for keeping relative humidity as low as possible.
Exceptional Moisture AbsorptionWith the ability to absorb up to 3540% of its own weight, this silica gel provides reliable moisture control in sensitive environments. Its spherical beads increase the surface area, ensuring efficient adsorption, whether used in air dryers, packaging, or electronics.
Stable and Safe PerformanceThis silica gel is non-toxic, odorless, and chemically stable, making it suitable for a broad spectrum of industrial and commercial applications. Its neutral pH value and insolubility in water add to its safety profile, making it ideal for pharmaceuticals and food packaging.
Versatile Applications and RegenerationSilica gel can be reused through regeneration at 120150C, offering a cost-effective and sustainable solution for moisture management. With a bulk density of 700750 kg/m and several size options, it meets the varying needs of distributors, exporters, manufacturers, and traders.
FAQs of Silica Gel For Variable Pre:
Q: How should silica gel for variable pre be stored for optimal effectiveness?
A: Silica gel should be stored in a dry, cool place with the container tightly closed to prevent premature moisture absorption and maintain its performance for up to 2 years.
Q: What is the process for regenerating silica gel beads after use?
A: To regenerate silica gel beads, heat them at a temperature between 120150C. This process removes the absorbed moisture and restores the gels adsorption capacity, allowing for reuse.
Q: Where is silica gel for variable pre commonly applied?
A: Silica gel is widely used in air dryers, gas drying systems, pharmaceuticals, chemical industries, electronics, and packaging to protect products from moisture damage and enhance shelf life.
Q: When should silica gel be replaced during use?
A: Silica gel should be replaced or regenerated when it reaches its moisture absorption capacity (3540% of its own weight) or when color change indicates saturation for indicating types.
Q: What are the benefits of using silica gel as a moisture absorber?
A: Silica gel effectively controls humidity, preventing corrosion, mold, and degradation in sensitive environments. It is non-toxic, odorless, and offers easy regeneration, making it a cost-efficient moisture management solution.
Q: How is silica gel supplied and what is its physical form?
A: Silica gel is supplied in HDPE drums or bags and comes in the form of white or blue spherical granules, with bead sizes ranging from 13 mm and 25 mm, making it suitable for various industrial needs.
