Silica Gel can absorb water and other substances such as HC1, CO2, C12, or aromatics. Silica Gel is odorless, tasteless, and chemically inert. This makes it a non-corrosive and non-toxic method of controlling moisture, especially since it will not react to other chemicals and retains its size and shape. In this way, Silica Gel packets can limit the growth of mold and prevent spoilage or other damage.

These gel packets see extensive use as a moisture absorber in everything from electronics to medicine. In particular, these desiccant packets are used in compressed air systems. By flowing compressed air through a gel packet, it is possible to prevent moisture buildup and subsequent breakdowns. This applies in industrial settings and railway locomotives. Similarly, high frequency radio and satellite transmission systems rely on a moisture absorber in conjunction with a compressed air system to prevent signal degradation.
