Product Overview
Silica Gel 6-18 Mesh Indicating Blue
Molecular Formula: SiO2
CAS Number: 112926-00-8
Molecular Weight: 60.08
Silica Gel Granular 6-18 Mesh Indicating Blue is the naturally occurring mineral silicon dioxide that has been purified and processed into a hard, smooth beaded form. The beads are then saturated with a moisture indicating solution that gives them a deep blue color when dry. These pores have a strong affinity for moisture and use physical adsorption and capillary condensation to trap and hold it. Silica gel will remove moisture at temperatures as high as 220°F, but is best used at room temperature (70-90°F) and high relative humidity (60-90%Rh). The color changes from blue to purple to pink as it adsorbs moisture.
