What Is Indicating Silica Gel?

At Interteck, we’ve long been a champion of bringing the best possible product to our consumers in our effort to constantly push the envelope where moisture control is concerned. This brought the invention of indicating silica gel to our attention as soon as it took place and we’ve been offering the finest product on the market ever since. We knew it was a game-changer all the way back then and still believe in its value to our customers today.

Indicating silica gel from Interteck comes in two distinct varieties – aside from being encased in packets or in bulk as loose beads: orange to green and blue to pink. These aren’t color preferences either, well not entirely, but the aftereffects of the moisture indicator used to manufacture the product in the first place. They do the same thing, but use different chemical additives to do it. That means they have different toxicity levels and shouldn’t be treated the same. Let’s look deeper (take note that the packaging is irrelevant to the chemical makeup of each product):

§ Blue to Pink Indicating Silica Gel: The blue to pink indicating silica gel from Interteck is actually just our normal white non-indicating silica gel which has been washed with a special concentration of cobalt chloride. When dry, this cobalt chloride coating is a brilliant blue color and when it becomes saturated with moisture it turns pink. That’s what you’re seeing when it changes color – the saturation of the cobalt chloride outer covering. While only moderately toxic, cobalt chloride should not be ingested or used in connection with food. You can read more about the safe uses of blue to pink indicating silica gel by visiting our Information pages.

§ Orange to Green Indicating Silica Gel: The orange to green indicating silica gel from Interteck is our non-indicating silica gel washed with a concentrate of methyl violet which is nowhere near the toxicity of cobalt chloride and deemed a safer product to use in your home. It’s still a good idea to use this product away from small children and pets to avoid any trouble should the get it in their hands or mouths. It’s not poisonous, but it pays to avoid trouble whenever possible.

So, as you can clearly see, indicating silica gel is just ordinary silica with a special concentration bath which gives it its almost magical properties. And, who can say that having your desiccant show you it’s time for a change isn’t helpful? It’s an advancement we were proud to bring to our customers and one we’re still working hard to improve every single day. They work great in so many areas of your home or office and should have a place in every Americans toolkit. They’re just that handy!

All About White, Blue And Orange Silica Gel Varieties

In many household and industrial items, moisture encourages the growth of mould and also causes rusting. Condensation may damage the components of your electronic goods and speed up the decomposition of chemicals in medicines. Silica Gel is a desiccant that helps preserve these products longer.

Silica gel absorbs and holds water vapor. By limiting the moisture around it, silica gel can help preserve food and medicines longer and keep industrial equipment in the best shape.In this article, we will find out more about Silica gel and understand the difference between white, orange,and blue

What is Silica Gel?

Silica gel is an amorphous and porous form of silicon dioxide and is a strong desiccant. A desiccant is a hygroscopic substance that is used to encourage or maintain a state of dryness around it. So, silica gel helps control moisture by absorbing and holding water vapor.

Silica gel can absorb around 40 percent of its weight in moisture. It can take the relative humidity in a closed container down to about 40 percent. Once saturated, you can drive the moisture off and reuse silica gel by heating it above 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius).

It is comprised of randomly connected spherical polymerized silicate particles, the primary particles. The properties of silica gels are a result of the size and state of aggregation of the primary particles and their surface chemistry. Modern silica gel technology enables the production of highly pure gels that are composed of nearly 100% silicon dioxide with custom-tailored pore systems and surface properties.

Types of Silica Gel

There are two types of Silica gels that are produced for industrial and other applications. They are indicating and non-indicating silica gels. Let us explore these two categories, the varieties of silica gels available under each category and their respective uses.

Non-indicating silica gel

Non-indicating silica gel refers to the variety of silica gel which remains unchanged in its appearance on absorbing moisture. These types of silica gels have no less absorption capabilities than others but in non-indicating silica gels, there is no way to determine whether the silica gel has completely absorbed moisture or not. White Silica gel is a type of Non-indicating silica gel.

White Silica Gel

White Silica Gel is known as Non-Indicating Silica Gel as it remains unchanged in its appearance on adsorbing moisture. White Silica Gel is produced as an ivory-white semi-transparent round vitreous body or crystals with good absorption capacity. But there is no way to determine whether the Silica gel has completely absorbed moisture or not. White Silica Gel causes no odor or pollution and is non-toxic. It is one of the most widely used damp proof agent or desiccant in the world.

Indicating Silica Gel

Indicating silica gel refers to the variety of silica gel which changes its appearance on absorbing moisture to notify that it has reached its limit of absorption and needs to be replaced. These types of silica gels have no less absorption capabilities than others but in indicating silica gels, you can determine whether the silica gel has completely absorbed moisture or not. Orange Silica gel and Blue Silica gel are types of Indicating Silica gel.

Blue Silica Gel

Blue Silica Gel is an Indicating Silica Gel as it is prepared by washing White Silica gel with a concentration of Cobalt Chloride, which provides the Blue color to the silica gel. Indicating Blue Silica Gel adsorbs moisture in exactly the same way as white non-indicating silica gel.

But, when they are becoming saturated with moisture, they will actually change their color from blue to pink, thus indicating that it has absorbed moisture and needs to be replaced.

Blue Silica Gel tends to be less expensive than Orange Silica Gel while still maintaining the same performance standards. However, the use of Blue Silica Gel has been limited due to its ban in the European Union because of the use of cobalt chloride, a known human toxin, in its production. This is why Blue Silica gel should not be used in direct contact with products intended for consumption, such as food or pharmaceuticals. Despite this fact, Blue Silica Gel is still available for use in the United States.

Orange Silica Gel

Orange Silica Gel is a non-toxic, pollution-free desiccant that meets the needs of environmentally conscious companies. The orange silica gel has many applications where visual control of moisture is necessary, such as in compressed air dryers, breathers, for protection of non‐consumable packaged goods, for drying & storing flowers and seeds, and a lot more. Orange Silica Gel should not be used in direct contact with products that are intended for human consumption, such as food and pharmaceuticals.

Orange silica gel has methyl violet which turns the gel green in color when the desiccant becomes saturated by moisture. There is also a newer variety of Orange silica gel which goes colorless when saturated with moisture and is considered better as far as the indication, adsorption capacity & environmental impact are concerned.

Today, orange silica gel is the most widely used variety of silica gel used in commercial applications.

Final Words

Moisture and condensation encourage the growth of mould and may damage the goods. Silica gel is used in all such products that are susceptible to damage by moisture and water vapor. Silica Gel avoids dampness, dries, resists rust, and is fit for moisture proofing of instruments, weapons, electronic equipment, household apparatus, machinery, leather, pharmacy, food, textiles, and other packed goods.

It is used as an 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 because of its ability to resist dampness in order to save goods because of high humidity.

Indicating and Non-indicating Silica gels have applications in different industries but their basic function and utility remain the same.
