Silica Gel desiccant

Silica gel is a solid and organic stirring material that is synthetically made from sodium silicate and it is an amorphous form of silicon dioxide, which is produced in the form od beaded (having presence of small spherical) and granular (hard irregular appearance of crystals) with having a high surface area that makes silica gel a highest capacity of moisture adsorption capacity than other adsorbents.

The water molecules adhere to the surface area of silica gels because it exhibits a lower vapor pressure than the surrounding air. Once the saturation level is reached of equivalent pressure, no more adsorption process ensues. Thus the greater amount of humidity condition (above 50% relative humidity) and water portion that is adsorbed before steadiness is grasped.

Silica gel is using for different applications. Its usage is increasing day by day. In the future, as per the research analysis, within 5 years the market of silica gel and silica products will have a huge hype. In the food industries, packaging industries, glass industries, machinery, electronic industries...the area of its application is really high.

Desiccant is another name of silica gel. as said before, the application area of silica gel is wide. Therefore, for each industrial application desiccant is available in different names sometimes with little differences.

For example, if you are running a glass industry you can use normal white desiccant for your applications. If it is the food industry or drug industry, definitely you will be worried about the hygiene of food and pharma products. But the manufactures made it clear. That is considering Clariant turkey company, they are manufacturing all the types of absorbing products for all the applications.

Their, Oxy-guard desiccant is mainly focussing on food and pharma industries. Container Dri desiccant is mainly focussing on packaging and shipping industries. Normal silica gel can be used for all applications.
