  • Latest News- Silica Gel Market: Oil and gas industry is expected to lead the Application segment during 2025-2029

    The Silica Gel Market is being driven by Increasing use in food and beverages industry as food additives

    The Silica Gel Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.7% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 576 million. In the global silica gel market, allochroic silica gel, a colored variant, has emerged as a significant trend due to its application in various industries, particularly in power systems. This type of silica gel changes color upon absorbing moisture, providing crucial indicators for manufacturers. For instance, in transformers, blue allochroic silica gel is commonly used. Upon absorbing moisture, it transforms from a shallow blue hue to pink, signaling the moisture content in machine parts. This color change facilitates preventive maintenance and allows for timely identification and correction of defects, enhancing overall operational efficiency and product quality.
