Features & Benefits
- Product Highlights
- SYLOBEAD® SG W 127 Buffer Gel for Protecting Adsorbent Beds exhibits a high water capacity under conditions of high relative humidity and in particular when water is present in the liquid phase.
- It also has a high capacity for liquid hydrocarbons and other organic liquids.
- When wet it maintains its mechanical strength and integrity.
- For this reason it is used as a buffer layer in molecular sieve and silica gel treaters which may be subject to occasional liquid carryover.

Safety & Health
- Health and Safety Precautions
- SYLOBEAD® SG W 127 Buffer Gel for Protecting Adsorbent Beds is an amorphous form of silica.
- In active conditions it will release heat when adsorbing water or other substances.
- If a large quantity of silica gel quickly adsorbs water, the adsorbent can become hot enough to cause thermal burns of the skin; contact has to be avoided under these conditions.
- Information to date indicates that the dust from the product is not toxic and does not cause fibrosis.
- The Occupational Exposure Limit in Germany is 4 mg/m3 for total dust (MAK).
Packaging & Availability
Storage & Handling
- Storage Information
- SYLOBEAD® SG W 127 Buffer Gel for Protecting Adsorbent Beds should be handled so as to avoid generation of dusty conditions at the workplace. When pouring into a container in the presence of flammable liquids, gasses or dust, both containers should be electrically earthed.
- Storage in a dry warehouse is recommended.
- Extended exposure to UV light degrades the big bag material and this should be avoided.
- Open packages should be resealed to prevent contamination and adsorption of water or other gasses and vapors.
- The material in drums should be used within 4 years, the material in big bags within 6 months (from the date of production).
