What are the characteristics and advantages of Silica Gel Desiccant?
We all know that food packaging has a desiccant, the kind of transparent ball particles is Silica Gel Desiccant, in general, food packaging is mostly used in such desiccant. What are the characteristics and advantages of silicone desiccant? Dingxing Xiaobian to share with you.
Silicone desiccant is a physical adsorption desiccant rather than chemical reaction desiccant desiccant, and silicone is FDA only recognized direct contact with food and medicine desiccant raw materials. Compared to other desiccants, Silica Gel Desiccant used in food moisture is relatively safe. In addition to the above factors, Silica Gel Desiccant also has a strong ability to absorb, adsorption performance, the Silica Gel Desiccant all into the water, it will not melt. With non-toxic, tasteless, non-corrosive, non-polluting characteristics, even if the food will not be absorbed by the body.
1, Silica Gel Desiccant insoluble in water and any solvent.
Non-toxic and tasteless, stable chemical properties, in addition to strong alkali, hydrofluoric acid does not react with any substance. Various types of silica gel because of its different manufacturing methods to form a different microporous structure. The chemical structure and physical structure of silica gel, it determines that it has many other similar materials difficult to replace the characteristics of high adsorption performance, good thermal stability, chemical stability, a higher mechanical strength.
2, Silica Gel Desiccant safety performance
Silicone desiccant is the main component of silica, chemical stability, not burning. Silicone is an amorphous silica, should control the workshop dust content of not more than 10 mg / cubic meter, need to strengthen the exhaust, wear a mask. Silicone has a strong ability to absorb, the human skin can produce a dry effect, therefore, the operation should wear a uniform. If the silicone into the eyes, need a lot of water rinse, and as soon as possible to find a doctor.
3, save and packaging
Silicone desiccant has a strong hygroscopic capacity and should therefore be stored in a dry place. There should be a shelf between the packaging and the ground. Packaging materials are steel drums, paper drums, cardboard boxes, plastic bottles, polyethylene plastic composite bags, flexible container bags, and so on. Silicone desiccant specific packaging specifications see Ding Xing classification Product Description, the transport process should avoid rain, moisture and sun exposure.
