HOME SILICA GEL MOLECULAR SIEVE SPECIALTY
MOLECULAR SIEVE
crystal clear silica gel Silica Gel Odorless, non-toxic, and non-corrosive, with stable chemical and thermal characteristics, silica gel is the most commonly used desiccant, and is regarded as the highest humid adsorbent in desiccant community. With active, interconnected pores forming a vast surface area, silica gel is the most capable desiccant for dehumidification. Silica gel can adsorb moisture 40% or up of its weight at 100% humidity environment.

SGCxx Silica Gel, macroporous,
density: 0.4-0.5 g/ml and porosity: > 7.2 ml/g, heavy-duty moisture adsorbent, even at high humidity, with typical application as follows:
  • insulation oil recycling: quickly remove organic acid, water and color agent; recover pH to neutral; regenerate the oil electric properties.
  • lubrication oil regeneration.
  • catalyst in petroleum cracking.
  • remove high protein in fermented products.
SGFxx Silica Gel, microporous,
density: >0.6 g/ml and porosity: > 3.2-5.0 ml/g, widely used moisture adsorbent for different application, with typical application as follows:
  • removes moisture before proceeding air separation.
  • serves as separating agent in fine separation of petroleum chemicals.
  • removes moisture in oxgen, or acetylene in liquid oxygen during steel smelting.
  • serves as catalyst.
SGIxx Silica Gel, blue gel, with properties and applications similar to SGCxx, and color changes with moisture it adsorbed (appears in blue, light blue, pink and red in sequence when humidity increases). Used with other gels for best moisture adsorbing application.

Silica gel is manufactured by chemical reaction of sodium silicate and sulphuric acid, and through purification and different treatment.

A desiccant unit is the amount of desiccant used to adsorb 3 grams of water vapor at 20% relative humidity, or 6 grams at 40% relative humidity.

A unit is 28 grams for silica gel, 33 grams for calcium gel, and 28 grams for molecular sieve.

Needs of desiccant in most applications are between 1/6 unit and 16 units.

General Notes:
  • Available in both semi-transparent, crystal like blue and crystal like clear. Blue gel changes color with humidity. It is often used as humidity indicator as well.
  • Other bead size available at custom's specification, or in lump granule.
  • Regenerated when baked at 300-340oF for 3-4 hours.
  • Offered in 25 kg bag or 55 gal drum (130-150 kg, air sealed) and container load (13-15 tons).
  • Small packages in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 grams are available.
  • Packaging material: polyethylene composite paper and adhesive-bonded cloths.
  • Silica gel and Tyvek bag (heat sealed) are F.D.A. approved.
  • Best used in closed/sealed moisture barrier or container.
Bag Sizing:
  • Vitamins, pharmaceuticals and foods: 0.25 - 3.0 gram silica gel or calcium gel. Calcium gel is not F.D.A. approved.
  • Medical/surgical instrument: 0.25 - 1.0 gram silica gel or molecular sieve.
  • Electronics, circuit board and semiconductor: 1.5 - 3.0 gram silica gel or molecular sieve.
  • Opticals or sensor heads: 10 gram or more silica gel or molecular sieve.
Special Application from Clients:
  • Fine gel used as food tracer for diet monitoring and research. Crush strength of the gel is a key factor.
  • Cat or pet litter material, to eliminate odor and to adsorb liquid waste.
