Dessicant Silica Gel
( for MILITARY specification silica gel, please contact us )
The microporous structure of silica gel affords a high surface area (up to 800 m 2 /g) that is ideal for the scavenging of atmospheric moisture. Since there is no chemical reaction associated with the dehydration process, desiccated compounds are never exposed to harmful by-products or contaminants.
Silica gel is used widely as a laboratory desiccant for the following reasons:
- It can adsorb up to one third of its own weight in water vapour (this adsorption efficiency is approximately 36% greater than that of typical desiccant clays)
- It has an almost indefinite shelf-life if stored under airtight conditions
- Once saturated with water, silica can be regenerated by gentle heating
- With the exception of strong alkalis and hydrofluoric acid (HF), it is inert and resistant to attack or corrosion
- It is non-toxic, non-flammable and easy to handle
- It maintains the appearance of a dry product and its shape remains unchanged even when fully saturated with water
Standard white silica gel is referred to as being non-indicating. Self-indicating silica gels possess a chemical compound or dye that changes colour as moisture is adsorbed.
Our self-indicating desiccants are available in “blue to pink” and “orange to green or white” format. Please note that medium size granules (1 – 5 mm) are suitable for laboratory desiccants whilst larger granules (2 – 5 mm or 4 – 8 mm) are normally employed in dynamic adsorption processes.
