How is silica gel regenerated ?
Self-indicating silica gels when they have become saturated can be regenerated by heating at 100 – 120°C until they return to their original colours. The heating literally drives off the adsorbed moisture. Regeneration can be carried out repeatedly, although eventually the crystals will lose their colour. When regenerating self-indicating silica gel sachets, only the minimum necessary heat should be used. This will prevent the sachet material from deteriorating. Although non-indicating silica gel can be regenerated in exactly the same way, it is not apparent when the silica gel is regenerated other than by checking its weight – it will return to its original dry weight when completely regenerated.
Self-indicating silica gels when they have become saturated can be regenerated by heating at 100-120°C until they return to their original colors. The heating literally drives off the adsorbed moisture. Regeneration can be carried out repeatedly, although eventually the crystals will lose their colour and 5% of their absorption ability after each reactivation.
