We offer Granular Silica Gel which the grainy porous transparent substance with a good surface area for adsorption of water and organic/gaseous molecules. Silica gel can adsorb 25–40% moisture by weight. Our Granular Silica Gel are available in different mesh sizes. They are blue in colour and turn pink as it starts absorbing moisture in the activated state. The blue color is an indicator of complete activation while non-indicating is white in color. This is why Granular Silica Gel are the preferred desiccant or adsorbent.

Advantages :

Inert for most of the intended application
Non toxic and non combustible
Good mechanical strength
Adsorption without change in its physical properties
Easy and fast regeneration
Economical

Applications :

Drying of humid compressed air & other gases
Mainly used as a carrier of the catalyst
Transformer breather for removing water or organic acid from the insulating oil
For absorbing hydrocarbon from the light oil
Recovery of natural gasoline from natural gases
Flower drying
Drying of liquids such as refrigerants, oils containing water in suspension
Bleaching of petroleum oils
Anticaking agent in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals
