Orange silica Gel

Orange silica gel

In 1998, the European Union determined that Blue Indicating Silica Gel, which contains cobalt dichloride, a known human toxin, and prohibited its use within European markets. Orange Indicating Silica Gel conforms to the European Union requirements for moisture indicating desiccants. Similar to Blue colloid, Orange Silica gel is used in a variety of industries and applications, such as compressed air dryers, gas drying, and transformer breathers.

We offer Orange Silica Gel in 2mm-5mm bead size. Orange Indicating colloid additionally contains a high surface assimilation capability and can take away wet at temperatures as high as 150° F (65°C). However, it's best used at temperature (70‐90° F /21-32°C).

Orange colloid could be a non-toxic, pollution-free desiccant that will meet the needs of environmentally-conscious companies. That said, Orange silica gel mustn't be utilized in direct contact with merchandise that is meant for consumption, like food and prescription drugs.

The primary form of indicating desiccant sold by AGM is bulk indicating silica gel, which is ideal for air-drying applications. Indicating silica gel is a bead or granule that has been washed with a concentration of cobalt chloride (a heavy metal salt). The metallic element chloride could be a deep blue color once dry and turns from blue to pink because it becomes saturated with wet.

This type could be a bright orange color once dry and turns from orange to inexperienced because it becomes saturated with wet. This silica gel conforms to European Union requirements for moisture-indicating desiccants.

Indicating drying agent is right to be used with a moisture-sensitive product that is subject to regular review as a result of it offers a fast indication of the saturation level of the drying agent.

Due to the presence of metal chloride, indicating silica gel desiccant should NEVER be used in direct contact with products for consumption, such as food or pharmaceuticals. Indicating colloid drier is additionally obtainable in special packet sizes to be used in physical science, pharmaceutical, or food packaging.
