SYLOBEAD® SG W 127 is a buffer gel for protecting adsorbent beds. It is a wide-pore, beaded form of silica gel that exhibits a high water capacity under conditions of high relative humidity, especially 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 sieves and silica gel treaters that may be subject to occasional liquid carryover.
