Granular White Silica Gel – 15 kg Drum

Granular white silica gel is a high-purity desiccant, packed in a sealed 15 kg polyethylene drum. This high-grade drying material is widely used in industrial settings for humidity control in production-scale and process applications, ensuring effective moisture protection.

It is available in three main grain sizes to suit different technical requirements:

6 - 8 mm (default): larger grains, suitable for large volumes and systems with air circulation. They promote lower pressure drop and better flow distribution, making them ideal for large-scale filters and dynamic applications.

2 - 5 mm: intermediate and versatile grain size, suitable for most applications. It represents a balance between available surface area and airflow permeability.

0.5 – 2 mm: finer grains, suitable for limited spaces, compact cartridges, or small filters where it is necessary to maximize the amount of material in limited volumes. They require caution in airflow applications due to the higher compactness of the bed.

Product Features

Composition: Purified silicon dioxide, processed into high-quality granules.

Properties: Odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, non-corrosive, and chemically inert. These features make it safe and versatile for a wide range of applications.

Structure: Characterized by a porous structure with high specific surface area, allowing superior moisture adsorption capacity.

Stability: Non-deliquescent, meaning it retains a dry surface even at full saturation, without releasing moisture back into the environment.

Absorption Capacity

Silica gel removes moisture up to 65 °C, but performs best at room temperature (20–30 °C) and under high relative humidity (60–90% RH).

Below are indicative values of its adsorption capacity depending on ambient humidity:

Main Application Fields

Bulk silica gel is particularly suitable for medium and large-scale industrial applications, such as:

• Industrial Production: For humidity control in production processes and for protecting raw materials and finished products in large volumes.
• Drying Systems: Used in industrial air dehumidification systems to prevent corrosion and material degradation.
• Laboratories and Chemical Sector: For drying reagents, gases, and sensitive materials in controlled environments.

Packaging and Availability

This silica gel variant is packed in a sealed 15 kg polyethylene drum, ideal for industrial use and bulk supply. The product is available for immediate delivery.

Other formats are also available – from 500 g bags to 20, 25, and 30 kg drums – to meet various operational needs. Immediate availability and easy ordering support efficiency even in fast-paced production settings.

Safety and Compliance

Silica gel complies with safety and non-toxicity standards. It is free of DMF (dimethyl fumarate) and meets EU regulations.
