Characteristics: Silica gel for Beer is a kind of non-crystalline micro-porous solid
powder,its pore diameter is 8-16nm.Its chemical molecular formula
is mSiO2.nH2O,insoluble in water or any other solvent (except the
caustic alkali and hydrofluoric acid). It does not react with any
acid, alkali or salt. It is nontoxic, tasteless,flame-resisting and
nonexplosive.It possesses high stability under hot or cold
atmosphere and is harmless to human body,mainly used in beer
industry.
Use: 1. It has large specific surface area and numerous fine-pored
structure.It adsorbs the proteins which cause beer turbid and
removes them through filtering,just within several minutes,thus
prolonging beer storage period by 180-240 days and keeping beer
from being cold muddy. 2. It does not affect the beer foam or taste.Thanks to its superior
physical and chemical properties,it does not have any adverse
effect on the beer foam or taste.It generally recognized by the
world beer industry. 3. It helps improve the filter promoting effect.It is chemically
stable,contains no beer soluble substances,Its surface area and
porous structure are both superior to diatomite.It is a kind of
ideal filter promoter in aiding diatomite filter,making beer
brighter and clearer.
