BULK Silicon Dioxide Powder

What Is Silicon Dioxide? Silicon dioxide is most notably recognized by the little pouch at the bottom of beef jerky bags. This small pouch contains silicon dioxide, which is a porous desiccant that removes moisture from an area. However, what is not commonly known, is that Silicon Dioxide is found naturally within the human body and within various plants such as beets, bell peppers, oats, alfalfa, brown rice, and leafy vegetables. How Does Silicon Dioxide Work? Silicon Dioxide is an anti-caking agent that works by preventing compounds that would otherwise clump due to their hygroscopic nature. This property makes it a vital component in the shipping process to make sure your consumers are getting the best quality product possible.
