Daywalk e-Gel Silica Gel Sachets | Silica Transformer Breather

e-Gel desiccant is and excellent alternative to blue (cobalt chloride) indicating silica gel. e-Gel indicates an orange colour when active and changes to dark green when the desiccant becomes saturated. As with non-indicating silica-gel, the material is a refined form of silica gel which is produced by the reaction of a mineral acid, usually sulphuric, and a sodium silicate solution. The beads are impregnated with safe organic indicator which changes colour as the desiccant becomes saturated. e-Gel is capable of absorbing up to approximately 30% of its own weight of water.
