Desiccant

Desiccant work by absorbing moisture molecules from the surrounding environment onto their surface. By absorbing moisture, they help prevent corrosion, mold growth, spoilage and other damages caused by high humidity or moisture.

Silica gel is a porous form of silicon dioxide (SiO2) that is synthetically produced in granular or bead form. It is widely used as a desiccant, due to its ability to adsorb and hold moisture molecules.

  • high moisture absorption capacity
  • non-toxic nature
  • cost-effective option

Desiccants are primarily used to maintain dryness in enclosed spaces or within products during packaging, storage, transportation, or processing.

Electronics & Semiconductors: To absorb moisture and prevent corrosion, particularly in sensitive components such as semiconductors, circuit boards, and sensors as well as electronic devices and equipment.

Pharmaceuticals: To maintain the stability and quality of drugs by preventing moisture-induced degradation.

Food Packaging: Preserve the quality and freshness of food products by reducing moisture levels, thus preventing spoilage, mold growth, and maintaining texture.

Textiles and Leather: It prevents mold growth, discoloration, and deterioration caused by excess moisture during storage and shipping.

Medical Devices: Crucial in the packaging of medical devices to maintain sterility and prevent moisture-induced corrosion or contamination

Optics and Photography: Used for optical and photographic equipment to prevent fogging, mold growth, and deterioration of lenses, films, and sensitive optics.

Chemical and Petrochemical: For moisture removal and purification processes, including gas and liquid drying, catalyst support, and chromatography.

Automotive: To protect sensitive electronic components, air conditioning systems, and stored vehicles from moisture-related damage during storage and transportation.
