Why does silica gel desiccant bounce when it meets water?

If we want to be familiar with the use of a certain product, we must first understand its basic knowledge. The same is true for silica gel desiccant. Why does silica gel desiccant bounce up when exposed to water? Let Mingwei Industry Editor follow Let's talk about it!


One is that silica gel has a lot of pinholes, and when it encounters water, it absorbs water too fast, which causes the volume of silica gel to expand sharply, so that the silica gel desiccant will bounce up when it meets water.

The second is that silica gel is mixed with other desiccants. Other substances may react with exothermic chemicals when exposed to water. Therefore, a lot of heat will be generated when put into water, which causes silica gel desiccant to bounce up when exposed to water.

The reason why the silica gel desiccant absorbs water can cause a rage, mainly because the violent water absorption will cause the silica gel ball to expand, gain momentum, and thus bounce.

The above is the reason why the silica gel desiccant will bounce when it meets with water. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. If you want to know more about the product knowledge of silica gel desiccant, please pay attention and consult us.
