Scott Malcolm : Quality In Gel Packs

Fantastic Gel Packs: Scott Malcolm

Scott Malcolm’s gel packs are different from others. The water, refrigerant gel, or liquid is the main constituent of gel packs. They are put in the gel packs so that they can absorb a large amount of heat energy from the surrounding so that they can do their work for which they were made. They usually work on the latent heat of fusion of water. Both ice and non-toxic refrigerants can absorb a moderate amount of energy. Ice Packs are mostly used in coolers to keep our foods fresh for a long time. The amount of ice needed varies with the amount of food. They help in keeping food fresh.

Scott Malcolm uses a different kind of technique in his liberty made gel packs. As compared to other substances water has the much higher latent heat of fusion than most substances. It has a melting temperature which is convenient and easily attained with. He often adds additives to improve the overall quality of water. Other substances can also be added to prevent bacterial growth in the pack. To prevent water from solidifying a think gel remains outside throughout its use. Gel packs are made up of nontoxic materials. They do not cause contamination even if the container is broken. Gel packs are generally made by adding hydroxyethyl cellulose, sodium polyacrylate or vinyl coated silica gel. There are a variety of gel packs. For example an instant ice pack. An instant pack consists of two bags, one containing water, inside the bag contains ammonium nitrate, calcium ammonium nitrate or urea. When we broke the inner bag after squeezing it, the solid in the pack dissolves to result in an endothermic reaction. This reaction then is used to absorb the heat from the surroundings... Instant packs are very beneficial. Instead of using directly ice we can use instant ice packs as first aid on-site injuries. The benefit of them is they can be carried to a remote or wilderness area where ice is not available.

Scott Malcolm ice packs come in different sizes and shape. They come in different colors. His hot and cold packs are also very nice. Unlike cold packs, they are stored at room temperature. When they are required we can store them in a freezer or heated in a microwave over to reach the desired temperature. They are easy to use. It was first introduced in 1948 and was patented in the year 1973. However, we should take precaution while using them. They are made up of diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol. When ingested in the large amount they can cause severe illness. Scott Malcolm’s gel packs are cheap and easy to use. One can use them according to his benefits. They are more comfortable as compared to any other gel packs in the industry.
