Orange silica gel
Orange silica gel also is known as orange indicating silica gel. As per the chemical description, it is orange to green indicating silica gel. The formula for the orange silica gel can be defined as SiO2 + H2O + C25H30ClN3. Health Hazard Identification says that do not breathe dust or exceed the exposure limits.
Always store orange silica gel in a closed and airtight container. Try to remove from the source of exposure. If in case it came to contact with skin, wash spillage from the skin with soap and water. The same for the eyes also. If any case it came to contact with eyes, wash immediately with copious amounts of water and obtain medical attention.
You can see the writing "Do not eat" on all the types of silica gel packets. Maybe it is not toxic. however, it is not edible. Like the other silica gels orange silica gel also not edible. Wash out mouth with water if a great amount swallowed or symptoms develop. It is an inorganic compound and not combustible.
Moisture Absorber
Moisture absorbers have an important role in human life. In ancient times, to filter the water to enter into the deep wells they used charcoals. They were aware of that charcoal has the ability to filter water. They used mainly coconut shell charcoal to filter water.
Now, we have scientific proof that charcoal is a good agent to absorb moisture and pure the air. So it is known as a good moisture absorber. Now we have charcoal water filters like the sand water filter. It is a gift from the old people.
Like a charcoal filter, charcoal briquettes are used to absorb wetness and odor from the air in your home. A while back, Gregory tipped us off on using charcoal to remove fridge odors, but they definitely work in other rooms, too. Therefore it is a good moisture absorber.
