Silica gel cat litter, also known as cat litter, is a white granular pet filler used in the homes of cats and other animals. It offers a completely new method for pet waste disposal. Belonging to the category of pet cleaning products, it is a new and ideal pet waste cleaner with unique effects unmatched by traditional cat litter products. It not only absorbs liquid urine and solid feces but also quickly and comprehensively absorbs odors, thus maintaining pet health and keeping the air fresh. Silica gel cat litter is a highly active absorbent material, typically produced by reacting sodium silicate with sulfuric acid, followed by a series of post-treatment processes such as aging and acid soaking.
Physicochemical Properties
Silica gel cat litter is chemically stable, insoluble in water and solvents, but sensitive to strong alkalis and hydrofluoric acid.
It has the characteristics of quickly absorbing liquid and solid excrement and odors, produces little dust, and inhibits bacterial growth.
Chemical Characteristics
Insoluble in water and any solvent, non-toxic and odorless, chemically stable, and does not react with any substances except strong alkalis and hydrofluoric acid. The chemical composition and physical structure of silica gel give it many characteristics that are difficult for other similar materials to replace: high adsorption capacity, good thermal stability, stable chemical properties, high mechanical strength, and strong hygroscopic properties.
