The main component of liquid silicone is mSiO2 · nH2O, which is a highly
active adsorption material and belongs to the amorphous state. Liquid
silicone is insoluble in water and any solvent, non-toxic and odorless,
with stable chemical properties. It does not react with any substance
except strong bases and hydrofluoric acid. Different types of silicone
gel form different microporous structures due to different manufacturing
methods, which determine that silicone gel has high adsorption
performance, good thermal stability, stable chemical properties, and
high mechanical strength. According to the size of pore size, silicone
can be divided into macroporous silicone, macroporous silicone, B-type
silicone, and microporous silicone. Silicone with different pore
structures has different adsorption properties. Coarse pore silica gel
has a higher adsorption capacity at high humidity, while fine pore
silica gel has a higher adsorption capacity than coarse pore silica gel
at low humidity. The adsorption capacity of B-type silica gel is between
coarse pore silica gel and fine pore silica gel. Macroporous silica gel
is mainly used as a catalyst carrier, extinction agent, toothpaste
abrasive, etc. Liquid silicone has a strong adsorption effect, which can
quickly and effectively adsorb water inside sealed packaging. It has
stable chemical properties, is non-toxic and harmless. In recent years,
liquid silicone has been widely used in fields such as drug
purification, DNA separation, food drying, high-precision electronics,
advanced cosmetics, sewage purification, beer purification, advanced
coatings, and resin production or preservation. After silica gel adsorbs
moisture, it can be regenerated through methods such as exposure to
sunlight, calcination, and air drying.
