Silica Gel
Silica Gel is a porous, amorphous form of silicon dioxide with the chemical formula SiO₂. It is commonly supplied as white or translucent granules or beads and is widely used as a desiccant, adsorbent, and stationary phase in laboratory chromatography, chemical separation, moisture control, and scientific research applications.
Product Specifications
Silica Gel is an amorphous inorganic compound with the chemical formula SiO₂ and CAS Number 7631-86-9. It is commonly supplied as white or translucent porous granules, beads, or powder, depending on its grade and intended application. Silica Gel has a highly porous structure and a large surface area, allowing it to adsorb moisture and various substances from its surrounding environment.
Silica Gel is valued for its excellent adsorption properties and versatility in laboratory and industrial applications. Common laboratory applications include column chromatography, thin-layer chromatography (TLC), chemical separation, purification of organic compounds, and analytical research. It is also widely used as a desiccant for moisture control in packaging, laboratory storage, and other applications requiring a moisture-absorbing material.
Its porous structure, chemical stability, and adsorption capacity make Silica Gel useful in analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, and general laboratory research. Different grades, particle sizes, and pore structures are available depending on the intended application. The appropriate grade and purity should be selected according to the requirements of the specific laboratory or industrial process.
KSFE Malaysia supplies laboratory chemicals and scientific products for research institutions, educational facilities, and general laboratory applications.
Safety Note: Silica Gel should be handled with appropriate care to minimise dust generation and inhalation. Avoid breathing dust and direct contact with the eyes. Wear suitable personal protective equipment, including safety glasses, protective gloves, and appropriate laboratory clothing. Handle in a well-ventilated area and use suitable dust-control measures when transferring or handling powdered material. Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place to maintain its adsorption properties. Refer to the supplier's Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for specific handling, storage, and disposal requirements.
