Food Desiccant

The food desiccant refers to a substance capable of removing moisture in a moist substance such as calcium sulfate and calcium chloride, and is dried by combining with water to form a hydrate; a physical drying agent such as silica gel and activated alumina is dried by physically adsorbing water. .
The control of moisture is closely related to the yield of the product. In the case of food, under the proper temperature and humidity, the bacteria and mold in the food will multiply at an alarming rate, causing the food to spoil, causing moisture and color. change. The use of food desiccants is to avoid the occurrence of undesirable products caused by excess water.
The raw material silica gel is a high-porosity structure of hydrous silica, which is non-toxic, odorless, odorless, chemically stable and has strong hygroscopic properties. Therefore, it is widely used to control the relative humidity of the environment during storage and transportation of foods, medicines, etc., and to prevent moisture, mildew and rust of articles. It is used in, for example, xylitol and is the only desiccant approved by the European Union.
Chunwang is a well-known manufacturer and supplier of Food Desiccant in China. It has its own processing plant and welcomes the wholesale Food Desiccant.

Food Safe Desiccant Packets

It is a compact, very durable, a dust-free absorbent bag that occupies a small space in the package but has a high moisture absorption capacity. Food desiccant has strong moisture absorption capacity and strong adsorption performance, and it does not soften or liquefy even if it is completely immersed in water. It is non-toxic, odorless, non-corrosive and non-polluting, so it can be in direct contact with any item.

Desiccant for Food Storage Packets

The main component is silica, which has spherical and irregular shapes. It is made by packing silica gel in a breathable pouch and weighs from 1g to 1000g/bag. Silica gel is insoluble in water and inorganic acid, soluble in hydrofluoric acid and concentrated caustic solution, with high mechanical strength and good wear resistance.

Food Grade Moisture Absorbing Packets

The main component of this silica gel desiccant is silica, and the purified natural minerals become granules or beads. As a desiccant, its microporous structure has good adsorption to water molecules. The most suitable absorption conditions are in a room temperature or high humidity environment where it can reduce the relative humidity by about 40%.

 

Food Desiccant Ingredients

Silica gel is food desiccant made from silicon dioxide, a naturally occurring mineral. The silicon dioxide is purified and then processed into beads or granules. It is one of the most commonly used desiccants because it can absorb water in temperatures up to 220 degrees Fahrenheit and remains the same size once it has absorbed moisture.
Silica gel can absorb other substances, including ammonia, alcohol, aromatics and paraffin. It has a strong affinity for water and may “release” other substances to absorb more water.

 

Proper Usage of Food Desiccants

Choose the Right Type and Quantity: Different food desiccants have varying moisture absorption capacities. It is essential to select the appropriate type and quantity based on the specific needs of the preserved food item.

Packaging Considerations: Food desiccants work best when used in airtight containers or packaging that limits the entry of moisture. Ensure that the packaging is clean, dry, and properly sealed to maximize the effectiveness of the food desiccant.

Placement and Renewal: Place the food desiccant in an enclosed packaging. Depending on the moisture content of the environment and the product being preserved, food desiccants may need to be replaced periodically to maintain their moisture-absorbing capacity.
