HYSG-6SILICAGEL small porous, white, crushed beads

Glassy, hard, crushed beads with a very high purity of approx. 99.5% SiO2 (dry basis) and an internal surface area of approx. 800m2/g.Because of its very large surface area SG-6 exhibits a high adsorption for water vapour. SG-6 can be reactivated without significantly impairing the efficiency. It is therefore very economical,

easy to dispose of and without any known adverse effects on the environment.

Applications        
Due to its extremely high adsorptive capacity SG-6 crushed beads have a multitude of uses: Static adsorption (=removal of moisture and control of humidity in packaging and other enclosed spaces without induces air flow). Dynamic dsorption (=removal of water from a continuously flowing glass or liquid stream). The temperature at reactivation should not exceed 180°C.

Packing           
Airtight in 25 kgs bags,cartons with PE-Inliner reconditioned 150 kgs steel drums with PE-Inliner 800 kgs-bulk bags with PE-Inliner

Handling        
SG-6 must always be kept in airtight containers to avoid pre-adsorption with water vapour. Face masks should be used at continual exposure to extensive dusting.
