• BLUEBLUE

Blue Silica Gel is also known as Self Indicating Silica Gel as it is prepared by impregnating White Silica gel with Cobalt Chloride present in a concentration of 0.5 to 1% weight for weight, an indicator, which provides the Blue color appearance. Self � Indicating Blue Silica Gel will adsorb moisture in exactly the same way as standard non-indicating (white) silica gel but will actually indicate when they are becoming saturated by changing their colour from blue to pink thus indicating that it has adsorbed moisture and needs to be replaced. Applications Silica Gel is usually used in many products since moisture and condensation encourages the growth of mold and spoilage and may damage the goods. Silica Gel dries, avoids dampness, resists rust, fit for damp proof of instruments, meter, weapon, cartridge, electronic components, household apparatus, spare parts of machinery, leather, pharmacy, food, costume, textiles and other packed goods. It can be used as air cleanser to restrain humidity in the air, as well as catalyzer carrier and dehydration for organic compounds as it has high density and high moisture absorption under low humidity. It has been used widely for ocean shipping with obvious effect to resist dampness in order to save goods because of high humidity in the process of ocean shipping. Silica gel can be used to protect a variety of items from moisture. The list below represents some commonly protected items: Tool boxes, Storage containers, Safes and vaults, Firearms, Photos, Auto components, Cargo holds on RVs, boats, etc., Collectibles (stamps, coins, etc.), Computer and peripherals, Metal and machine parts, Industrial equipment, Pharmaceuticals and vitamins, Electronic goods, Defense equipments, Circuit Boards, Foodstuffs, Batteries, Pet foods, Optical devices, Medical equipment, Leather products, Textiles, Seeds. Color indicator silica gel is used to dry seed for long-term storage. It may also be used to dry flowers, air, gases, certain food stuffs, cameras, tools, shoes, clothing, historical artifacts, display cases, and electronic instruments. It may be used to protect valuable items from mold, mildew, rust, and corrosion. Size : 2-5mm Round Beads, 2-5 mesh Crystals, 4-6 mesh crystals, 5-8 mesh Crystals, 2-4 mesh crystals Packing: 10 Kgs. Cartons, 25 Kgs. HDPE Bags

• ORANGEORANGE

Orange Silica Gel has been accepted as the perfect substitute for the indicating type blue silica gel as it is impregnated with an organic indicator. With silicon dioxide as the main ingredient it has all the properties of blue silica gel but does not contains cobalt chloride. The composite dyeing agent without pollution to the environment has been successfully adopted during the manufacturing process of the orange silica gel. When in dry state the particles are dark orange in appearance, as the particles take up moisture the colour gradually changes from orange to dark green thereby indicating that Silica Gel has adsorbed moisture and requires immediate replacement or regeneration. The orange silica gel has won unprecedented acknowledgment and praise from the clients since its commercial introduction into the markets. Color indicator silica gel is used to dry seed for long-term storage. It may also be used to dry flowers, certain food stuffs, dry air & gases, cameras, tools, shoes, clothing, historical artifacts, display cases, and electronic instruments. It may be used to protect valuable items from mold, mildew, rust, and corrosion. Size : 2-5 mm. Round Beads Packing : 25 Kgs. in Bags

• GREYGREY

An environmental friendly product made up of fine quality natural clay minerals mixed with calcium chloride and some special chemical additives. It further undergoes several physical and chemical processes like reaction, granule making, sifting and drying. Active minerals offer high surface area and water adsorption properties, while the Ca-ions greatly enhance the water adsorption capacity. It is round in shape and has special molecular structure, it holds the water molecules firmly within the pores inside the clay even on being saturated. Active Mineral offers better adsorption capacity than silica gel yet the cost of the product is quite less than silica gel. The raw materials are natural minerals and no harsh chemicals are used during the manufacturing process making it absolutely an eco friendly product. FEATURES 1. Environment Friendly: It is safe, odorless, non toxic, non corrosive and easily regenerated. 2. Degradative: Since it is made from natural clay minerals it is 100% degradative. 3. Adsorption Capacity: The adsorption rate is 50% - 100% higher than that of silica gel. 4. Cost: It is quite cheaper than silica gel yet very effective. 5. Duration: Protects products for much longer durations than silica gel. 6. Gases: Its molecular structure helps it to adsorb harmful & poisonous gases like formaldehyde, sulphide etc. CHEMICAL COMPOSITION 1) A highly performing natural clay mineral (>85%) with typical chemical composition as follows: SiO2 Al2O3 Fe2O3 TiO2 CaO MgO H2O 2) CaCl2 PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Colour : Grey Odour : None pH : 7-8 (in suspension at 10% in water) Moisture : Less than 2% Boiling Point/range : > 1600 º C Melting Point/range : 772 º C Decomposition Temperature : > 1600 º C Flammability (solid, gas) : Not Applicable Auto Ignition Temperature : Not Applicable Explosive Properties : Not Applicable Explosion Limits - lower : Not Applicable - upper : Not Applicable Vapour Pressure : Negligible Bulk Density : 0.75 – 0.9 Water Solubility :
