Moisture Absorbers and Wax Chemicals

Desiccants and Wax Chemicals

At MTC Chemical, we offer a wide range of desiccants and wax chemicals for various industries. These chemicals are designed to control moisture, preserve product quality, and be used in various manufacturing processes. Below, you will find detailed information about our desiccants and wax chemicals, along with their applications.

Activated Alumina

Activated alumina is a highly porous adsorbent commonly used to absorb moisture from the air. This chemical is widely used in moisture removal processes and industrial gas drying. Activated alumina effectively adsorbs water molecules, providing protection against environmental conditions.

Calcium Chloride

Calcium chloride is known as a powerful desiccant. This chemical quickly absorbs moisture from the environment and crystallizes with water. Calcium chloride is used in situations where moisture control is critical, such as packaging, storage, and transportation. It is also widely used in construction and the food industry.

Silica Gel White

Silica gel white is a high-capacity desiccant available in different particle sizes, typically ranging from 1-2 mm, 2-5 mm, and 4-6 mm. Silica gel white is used to protect electronic devices, pharmaceuticals, and other sensitive products from moisture. It is also commonly used in packaging to ensure long shelf life.

Silica Gel Blue

Silica gel blue is a desiccant that indicates its saturation level by changing color. As it absorbs moisture, it changes from blue to pink, signaling that it needs to be replaced. It is often used in critical moisture control applications, such as in laboratory equipment and optical devices.

Silica Gel Orange

Silica gel orange is an environmentally friendly desiccant that serves as a non-toxic alternative. It changes color as it absorbs moisture, indicating when it has reached its saturation point. Silica gel orange is safely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and electronics industries.

Beeswax

Beeswax is a natural wax derived from bees. It is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food coating, and industrial applications. Beeswax is an excellent choice for adding shine to products and protecting them from external factors.

Carnauba Wax

Carnauba wax is a natural wax obtained from tropical palm trees. Known for its high melting point and hardness, it is especially preferred in automotive polishes, floor coatings, and cosmetic products. Carnauba wax is also a safe option for use in food packaging.

Paraffin Wax

Paraffin wax is a wax derived from petroleum products. It is widely used in candle making, paper coating, cosmetics, and packaging materials. Paraffin wax increases the water and moisture resistance of products, ensuring long-term protection.

Stearic Acid

Stearic acid is a chemical derived from fatty acids and is commonly used in soaps, candles, and cosmetic products. Stearic acid enhances the hardness of products, making them more resistant to environmental factors. It is also used as an emulsifier in the food industry.
