Description
Silica gel desiccant beads are moisture-absorbing, self-indicating drying pearls intended as a practical alternative to classic desiccator absorbents. The spherical beads have a grain size between 1 and 3 mm, are free from heavy metals and are formulated for environmentally compatible use in laboratory drying applications. Their original orange colour changes progressively to white as moisture is taken up, allowing visual monitoring of saturation level without opening the vessel. Once spent, the beads can be regenerated by heating to a maximum of 120 °C, after which the orange colour returns and the material is ready for reuse. Packed as 1 kg in a sealed polypropylene bottle to limit pre-absorption of humidity before first use, this format from manufacturer ISOLAB Laborgeräte suits desiccators, storage cabinets and general moisture control where reusable indicating silica gel is preferred. The free-flowing bead form supports even distribution and straightforward handling in routine laboratory drying tasks.
This article is part of Desiccators & desiccant, in Tools & accessories.

Questions about Silica-gel desiccant beads
What is this article?
Silica-gel desiccant beads is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes ISOLAB for laboratory use. It sits in Desiccators & desiccant, inside Tools & accessories, in Labware.
A desiccator is a closed vessel that keeps a dried sample dry, usually over a desiccant or under vacuum. The seal of the lid and the state of the desiccant, not the glass alone, decide whether water stays out.
The small tools of the bench are what the hand actually holds: a spatula for a powder, forceps for an object that must stay clean, a brush for a narrow neck, a desiccator when a dried sample must not take up water again. None of these reads a measurement. They keep the measurement possible. The apparatus around them is listed under ISO laboratory apparatus.
