PRODUCT DETAILS
1. Product Description
This product is food-grade low-moisture silica exclusively for edible oils, with the international code E551. It is white porous particles, odorless and tasteless, produced via low-temperature drying and dewatering technology. Complying with FDA GRAS, EFSA E551 and EU 1333/2008 standards, it has a SiO₂ content of ≥99.2% and excellent moisture resistance. It can adsorb trace moisture in edible oils to prevent oil hydrolysis and deterioration, perfectly meeting the long-term storage and transportation needs of edible oils in overseas markets.

3. Application
Core strengths: extremely low inherent moisture and strong moisture resistance, suitable for processing, storage and long-distance transportation of all types of edible oils. It can adsorb trace moisture in oils to prevent hydrolysis, rancidity and deterioration, and the product itself does not release moisture, thus extending the shelf life of edible oils. Ideal for global edible oil manufacturers, warehousing and export enterprises, especially suitable for oil storage during overseas long-distance maritime transportation (high-humidity environment).
4. Factory Advantages
We have a professional low-temperature drying production line and precision moisture detection equipment, and established a low-moisture control and moisture-proof storage system. Our GMP food-grade production workshops are certified to ISO 22000 and FDA GRAS standards. Our products are exported to more than 60 countries, and we have rich experience in bulk supply for overseas edible oil warehousing and export enterprises. We provide professional moisture-proof application guidance, guarantee a delivery lead time of 4-7 days, and support customization of inherent moisture limits according to your requirements.
5. Shipping & Packaging
- Standard Packaging: 20/25kg valve bags, with high-efficiency moisture-proof desiccants inside and moisture-proof cartons outside for double protection.
- Storage & Transportation Requirements: Store in a cool, dry, sealed and light-proof place at 5-28℃ with relative humidity ≤60%. This product is a non-hazardous goods, supporting international sea and air freight.
- Labeling Specifications: Labels clearly state the low-moisture property and inherent moisture content; multilingual labels and moisture-proof warnings can be provided as required by international customers.
6. FAQs
Q: How long can the inherent moisture ≤0.5% be maintained?
A: It can be stably maintained for 30 months under sealed storage conditions. Please use it as soon as possible after opening to avoid moisture absorption.
Q: Can it be used for oil transportation in high-humidity environments?
A: Yes. It is specially designed for long-distance maritime transportation and transportation in tropical high-humidity areas, and can effectively adsorb trace moisture seeped from the environment to protect oil quality.
