30 Kg bulk silica gel | white granular | drum

The bulk white granular silica gel is a high-purity desiccant, packaged in a 30 kg sealed polyethylene drum. This high-quality dehydrating material is widely used in industrial environments for humidity control at production scale and in process applications, ensuring effective protection against moisture.

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 characteristics make it safe and versatile for a wide range of uses.

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

Stability: Non-deliquescent, meaning it keeps a dry surface even when fully saturated, without releasing moisture into the environment.

Adsorption Capacity

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

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

Main Application Areas

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

• Industrial Production: Used for moisture control in production processes, protecting raw materials and finished products in large volumes.
• Drying Plants: Employed in industrial systems for air dehumidification and protection against corrosion and deterioration.
• Laboratories and Chemical Sector: For drying reagents, gases, and moisture-sensitive materials in controlled environments.

Packaging and Availability

This variant of granular silica gel is packaged in a 30 kg sealed polyethylene drum, ideal for industrial use and large-scale supply. The product is available for immediate delivery.

Other formats are also available – from 500 g to 20 kg and 25 kg drums – to meet various operational needs. Immediate availability and easy ordering support efficiency in supply, even in dynamic production environments.

Safety and Compliance

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