Silica gel desiccant is a highly active adsorption material, usually made by reacting sodium silicate and sulfuric acid and undergoing a series of post-treatment processes such as aging and acid foaming. It is insoluble in water and any solvents, non-toxic, tasteless, chemically stable, and does not react with any substances except strong alkalis and hydrofluoric acid.
Uses of silica gel desiccant:
1. Silica gel desiccant for medicine and food
2. Silica gel desiccant for shoes and hats
3. Silica gel desiccant for electronic products
Silica gel desiccant storage:
Silica gel has a strong moisture absorption capacity, so it should be stored in a desiccant place. Avoid getting wet during transportation. Under sealed conditions, the shelf life is usually one year.
How to use silica gel desiccant:
1. The desiccant can function effectively only in a sealed environment.
2. After the desiccant is unpacked and used, it should be placed in the product as soon as possible, and the product can be sealed immediately to ensure that the desiccant can absorb the moisture in the limited packaging space.
3. The unused desiccant should also be sealed and stored instead of being placed randomly.
4. Avoid scratches during transportation and keep a desiccant in the storage environment.
Silica gel desiccant has different uses, and it can also be widely used in other fields. I believe that with the rapid development of the times, it will have more and more broad prospects.
