Silica Gel is a highly activated adsorbent, and it is furnished in a wide range of mesh sizes to suit various industrial applications. It is non-toxic, non-corrosive, odorless, chemically inert, and tasteless. Silica gel is a highly porous form of silica, with an extremely large internal surface area. The silica gel does not undergo any chemical reaction during adsorption and hence, does not form any by-products. Furthermore, it is non-deliquescent and would not change its size or shape even after absorbing high moisture. Additionally, when the silica gel is water-saturated, it remains dry and free-flowing.
Silica gel has applications in various industries, for instance in the shipping industry as an adsorbent. The cargo travels in the closed compartment by sea routes for days at a stretch. Therefore, small packets of silica gel are used for protecting cargo from moisture. Furthermore, silica gel is used in the food and beverage industry. Moisture content in food reduces the shelf life of food products, and high moisture content leads to the growth of fungus and mold. Silica gels are desiccants and maintain the shelf life of food products. Additionally, silica gels are chemically stable and are nontoxic, hence are widely used in the food and beverage industry.
Silica gel is also used in controlling odor. Silica gel absorbs odor and foul smell from the immediate vicinity; mainly they are used in deep freezer compartments, sleeping bags, shoes, footlockers, automobiles, and others. Other industry includes, personal care, chromatography, petrochemicals; industry catalyst support aid, films, nonfilms color dispersion aid, inks and printing industry, and paints and coatings, in steel refinery industry and oxygen plants, it can be used to remove ethane from oxygen, desiccant in the gas industry, dehydration and purification in oxygen, hydrogen, and chlorine.
