Desiccant – Silica Gel Bags

Using silica gel bags is an economic method of protecting moisture damage to products during transport and storage. It is a synthetic substance produced from sodium silicate meaning it has an absorption capacity of 25% (by weight) at a relative humidity of 50% at 25°C. They are perfect for general packaging, as well as electrical / electronic enclosures and communications equipment.

Each of this particular type of silica gel bag is filled with non-indicating beaded silica gel and can range in capacity from 1g to 500g. By using them in conjunction with a colour change indicator card (HIC) the relative humidity of the product will be visually available to indicate when if the desiccant is still active. We can also supply silica gel bags that conform to Defense Standard 81-86.

Features:

• Non-indicating beaded silica gel
• Nominal absorption capacity (by weight) of 25% at 50% RH at 25°C
• It has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C
