What is the main difference between an Oxygen Absorber and silica gel?

The main difference between Oxygen Absorbers and silica gel is their function: • Oxygen Absorbers remove oxygen from sealed packaging to prevent spoilage, oxidation, and mold growth in food and sensitive products. • Silica gel absorbs moisture (humidity) to prevent condensation, mold, and corrosion inside packaging and storage containers. Both are essential for long-term preservation, but they serve different purposes.
