Contact SupplierBlue Silica Gel is also known as Self Indicating Silica Gel as it is prepared by impregnating White Silica gel with Cobalt Chloride present in a concentration of 0.5 to 1% weight for weight, an indicator, which provides the Blue color appearance. Self � Indicating Blue Silica Gel will adsorb moisture in exactly the same way as standard non-indicating (white) silica gel but will actually indicate when they are becoming saturated by changing their colour from blue to pink thus indicating that it has adsorbed moisture and needs to be replaced.
Applications
Silica Gel is usually used in many products since moisture and condensation encourages the growth of mold and spoilage and may damage the goods. Silica Gel dries, avoids dampness, resists rust, fit for damp proof of instruments, meter, weapon, cartridge, electronic components, household apparatus, spare parts of machinery, leather, pharmacy, food, costume, textiles and other packed goods.
It can be used as air cleanser to restrain humidity in the air, as well as catalyzer carrier and dehydration for organic compounds as it has high density and high moisture absorption under low humidity.
It has been used widely for ocean shipping with obvious effect to resist dampness in order to save goods because of high humidity in the process of ocean shipping.
Silica gel can be used to protect a variety of items from moisture. The list below represents some commonly protected items:
Tool boxes, Storage containers, Safes and vaults, Firearms, Photos, Auto components, Cargo holds on RVs, boats, etc., Collectibles (stamps, coins, etc.), Computer and peripherals, Metal and machine parts, Industrial equipment, Pharmaceuticals and vitamins, Electronic goods, Defense equipments, Circuit Boards, Foodstuffs, Batteries, Pet foods, Optical devices, Medical equipment, Leather products, Textiles, Seeds. Color indicator silica gel is used to dry seed for long-term storage. It may also be used to dry flowers, air, gases, certain food stuffs, cameras, tools, shoes, clothing, historical artifacts, display cases, and electronic instruments. It may be used to protect valuable items from mold, mildew, rust, and corrosion.
