Silica gel is used to protect against moisture damage, as it can lower relative humidity. It
takes the form of transparent beads comprised of silicon dioxide. The many small pores in
the beads give silica gel a large internal surface area. This makes it suitable as a
desiccant, as it adsorbs moisture in the form of water vapour from the ambient air. Buy
silica gel from ThoMar OHG to obtain desiccants of perfect quality.

Silica gel and silica gel packets – examples of use
Buy silica for more dryness and security
Silica gel offers protection against moisture damage by lowering the relative humidity in a
closed room (in-box desiccant) and thus the risk of condensation. Available loose / bulk and
in packets, silica gel from ThoMar OHG is harmless and does not contain DMF. It is
registered and approved according to REACH.

Silica gel bags are considered THE classic desiccants. The small packaging units make silica
gel the ideal companion for sensitive goods, as they can be added directly to product
packaging. We offer silica gel packets in various designs with different types of wrapping
material – low-dust or dust-proof. Low-dust and dust-proof enveloping bags differ in the
density of their materials and the amount of dust that can penetrate through them.
Silica gel packets with low-dust or dust-proof wrapping material can
also be manufactured to customer specifications.
When processing, storing and transporting products, loose silica gel can be used in a variety
of ways to protect against moisture and wetness damage such as corrosion and mould. It is
mainly used in industrial drying plants, in laboratories, in compressed air drying and in
pressure compensation tanks. It is ideal for drying air and gases. Loose silica gel is
filled in airtight packaging, in cans or bottles or as a packet or sack.
Loose silica gel as bulk material is suitable for a variety of
applications.
In addition to the properties of the classic whitish-colourless silica gel, loose silica gel
orange has a special feature. It has a practical indicator that changes colour from orange to
green at a saturation of approx. 6%. The more water it absorbs, the more intense the green
colour becomes. When silica gel becomes a green-blue colour, the maximum saturation of the
desiccant has been reached. The indicator is an uncomplicated and useful aid.
Silica gel orange is available loose in various package sizes or filled
into fleece bags.

needs, we offer customers from industry and wholesale a complete desiccant service. You benefit
from our many years of experience and receive a precise needs analysis, personal advice, and
needs-based product selection.
Sizing: How much silica gel do I need to buy?
The question cannot be answered with a rule of thumb. Silica gel can absorb moisture. Depending
on the type and quality of the product, the absorption capacity is between 25 and 39%. Very
large-pored silica gel can in some cases absorb over 60% moisture. The exact quantity depends on
the temperature and relative humidity within the protective airtight wrapping (airtight wrapping
in which the goods are packaged). The goods in need of protection must also be taken into
account when performing the calculation.
Regeneration: How often do I need to buy silica gel?
Silica gel, also in its bagged version, releases absorbed water vapour again at very low
humidity, which can be used for regeneration. However, industrial desiccants are normally not
intended for regeneration. The cost of the energy required usually exceeds the cost of
replacement. Loose silica gel is an exception in this respect. It is mainly used in laboratories
and can be regenerated at approx. 130°C.
