Silica gel desiccant is a high-activity absorbing material in the form of granules or spheres of various sizes. Its chemical name is Silicon Dioxide (SiO2). It is odourless, tasteless, and non-toxic. Silica gel desiccant, supplied by Desiccant Australia, offers an excellent capacity for physical dehumidification because of its superior absorbability, chemical stability, wide surface area and high mechanical strength. We stock standard white silica gel and orange indicator silica gel that changes colour into green when the gel is spent and needs replacing. Silica gel desiccant is the most common type of moisture absorbent in the market and it is widely used in a wide range of industries and packaging.
