Why use mixed silica gel?

The reason for using color-changing silicone and white silicone together is mainly based on their respective characteristics and advantages, as well as their complementary effects in specific application scenarios.

Advantages of color-changing silica gel

1.Moisture absorption indication function: After absorbing moisture, the color-changing silica gel will gradually change color. This feature allows merchants to intuitively observe the humidity changes in the packaging or environment. This is especially important for products that require strict humidity control (such as precision instruments, electronic products, medicines, etc.).

2.Temperature sensitivity: Some color-changing silicones are also temperature-sensitive and can change color according to temperature changes, thus being used to measure or monitor temperature. This feature has important applications in food packaging, thermos cups, and other fields, and can remind users whether the temperature of food or beverages is safe.

Advantages of white silica gel

1.Basic hygroscopic properties: White silica gel is a common silica gel desiccant with strong adsorption capacity and can adsorb a variety of substances, including moisture. It is an FDA-approved desiccant material that can be in direct contact with medicines and foods, and is safe and reliable.

2.Cost-effectiveness:White silicone is usually cheaper than color-changing silicone. Therefore, if the color-changing indicator function is not required, using white silicone can reduce costs.

Benefits of using them together

1.Balance between cost-effectiveness and functionality: Merchants can reduce overall costs while ensuring the moisture absorption performance of the product.

2.Improving user experience: The intuitiveness of color-changing silica gel allows users to more easily judge the humidity status of the product, thereby improving user experience. White silica gel serves as a basic guarantee to ensure the overall drying performance of the product.
