Indicating Silica Gel changes colour to show when it is spent. Orange turns green, and blue turns pink. This makes it easy to see when the silica gel needs to be replaced or reactivated.
Yes. Indicating Silica Gel can be reactivated by heating it in a fan-forced oven at 110°C for 5 hours. The beads will return to their original colour. This process can be repeated up to 3 times before effectiveness declines.
If the silica gel has been used for standard moisture absorption (dehydration purposes), it can be safely disposed of in your regular household rubbish. However, if the beads have been used for gas separation applications, they may have adsorbed gases other than moisture due to their small pore size (approximately 20 angstroms). In this case, ...

Yes. Indicating Silica Gel is non-toxic, non-flammable, non-corrosive, and odourless. Only orange silica gel is food-safe. Blue silica gel should not be used with food.
Store in a sealed container or airtight packaging to prevent premature moisture adsorption. Properly stored, Indicating Silica Gel has an almost indefinite shelf life.
Indicating Silica Gel is commonly used for protecting electronics, cameras, computers, musical instruments, preservation packaging, tools, and other humidity-sensitive products.
Indicating Silica Gel 600g is designed to adsorb moisture in closed spaces such as storage containers, toolboxes, and transformer breathers. It is suitable for protecting electronics, documents, and humidity-sensitive products.
Indicating Silica Gel 600g contains beads sized between 2mm and 5mm, providing efficient moisture adsorption.
Yes. Indicating Silica Gel 600g is compatible with R Transformer Breathers.
Indicating Silica Gel 600g can adsorb up to 30% of its own weight in water vapour.
You can reactivate Indicating Silica Gel 600g by placing it in a fan-forced oven for 5 hours at 110°C. The beads will return to their original colour. This process can be repeated up to 3 times.
If used for standard moisture absorption, Indicating Silica Gel 600g beads can be disposed of in regular household rubbish. If used for gas separation, they must be taken to an authorised waste disposal facility, where a fee may apply.
