The type of Silica Gel used are the white/clear beads. White/Clear colored silica is non-toxic, and doesn't contain the carcinogens contained in color-changing additives of some types of packets. It can be re-used simply by the application of heat through either an oven or microwave. Silica gel packets are best used for the purpose of removing moisture from closed containers. A container with a strong seal like a decent safe may prevent things from getting inside but; that also means that any moisture cannot freely leave as well. Scenarios like this are where silica gel packets are going to work the best.
With a low dust emission rate, this allows for silica gel packets to be used with sensitive items, such as food. Silica is also non-corrosive; making it safe to use with electronics in the 1g size. For electronics, only use a single gram bag. This is because you don't want the environment storing your electronics to become so dry that it allows for an easier build up of static electricity. Finding the perfect balance and moderation will allow you to make the most out of your silica packets.
For reference: 1g silica can adsorb up to 40% moisture in a 75 cubic inch space. 75 cubic inches is roughly the volume of a 4.25in. x 4.25in. x 4.25in. enclosure. A cubic foot would therefore be 12 x 12 x 12.
Silica gel has the ability to lower the level of moisture in a closed area to less than 10% when using the proper amount. The easiest way to tell when a packet has become saturated is weigh it. If it weighs anywhere from 30 - 40% more than it should, it needs to be swapped out and reactivated. When in doubt. Use more (except on your electronics).
Methods to reactivate as follows (Varies based on packet material, In this case Tyvek paper):
Oven: bake packets for no longer than 2 hours at 250 Fahrenheit, monitor regularly until you are familiar doing this.
Microwave: Nuke them on DEFROST for 5 - 10 minutes.
Again, if you can weigh the packets, this is the best indicator there is. Color is more convenient but requires cancer-causing dyes. Effective re-usability will degrade over time; no matter the brand. Packets are double packed into an anti-static bag. Yes, water is a polar molecule and has a partial-charge. Anti-static will draw outside water vapor away during transit.
