Product Profile of Indicative Type Orange Silica Gel
Indicative Type Orange Silica Gel is used to replace blue Silica Gel as the blue mixture is presumed to cause cancer. The Silica Gel is produced by impregnating white Silica Gel with Phenolphtaleine due to which the colour of Silica Gel turns orange. Chemicals [India] Company manufactures Indicative Type Orange Silica Gel.
Chemicals [India] Company offers a wide range of industrial chemical products like drying agents, silica gel, activated alumina, activated carbon and Vapour Corrosion Inhibitors. The Indicative Type Orange Silica Gel changes to a translucent green after it absorbs moisture and indicates that it has been utilised.
Key Features of Indicative Type Orange Silica Gel
- The colour change occurs at 5 - 9 % RH, so it does not indicate saturation of the Silica Gel, rather there is a lot of adsorption capacity remaining after the colour change has taken place.
- Orange Silica is widely used in aviation, defence, construction and power industries.
- Regeneration temperature should not exceed 140 ° C got not damaging the indicator [phenolphtaleine].
