15 Kg bulk silica gel | white spherical | drum

The white spherical silica gel (bulk) is a high-purity desiccant packaged in a 15 kg sealed polyethylene drum. Its spherical shape ensures more uniform distribution in containers, better resistance to crushing, and consistent performance even under repeated thermal cycles. It is ideal for technical and industrial applications requiring effective and durable moisture control.

Unlike granular silica gel, the spherical form is favored in dehumidification plants, cartridge dryers, and dry air systems, due to its improved air flow and compatibility with standardized equipment.

Product Features

Composition: purified silicon dioxide in spherical form.

Properties: odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, non-corrosive, chemically inert.

Structure: uniform spherical shape with high porosity and active surface area.

Standard particle size: 2–5 mm

Stability: non-deliquescent; surface remains dry even when fully saturated, without releasing moisture.

Absorption Capacity

The silica gel removes moisture up to 65 °C, but performs best at room temperature (20–30 °C) and high relative humidity (60–90% RH).

Indicative absorption depending on humidity levels:

Relative Humidity (R.H.)	Temperature	Absorption
20%	23 °C	12 ± 1 %
40%	23 °C	20 ± 2 %
90%	23 °C	36 ± 2 %

* Note: laboratory data; performance may vary based on usage context, quantity used, and container type.

Main Applications

The white spherical silica gel (bulk) is suitable for industrial applications requiring prolonged adsorption cycles and uniform material distribution:

• Industrial production: moisture control in production processes and technical equipment.
• Drying systems: used in dehumidifier towers, dry-air cartridges, and closed-loop equipment.
• Laboratories and chemical industry: drying technical gases and humidity-controlled testing environments.

Packaging and Availability

The product is packaged in a 15 kg sealed polyethylene drum, ideal for continuous industrial use.

Also available in: 500 g, 1 kg, 5 kg, 20 kg, 25 kg, and 30 kg formats to suit different operational needs.

All formats are typically available for immediate delivery. Direct online purchase, even for small quantities, ensures flexible inventory management and efficient logistics for industrial and laboratory environments.

Safety and Compliance

The silica gel complies with European regulations on non-toxicity. It is free of cobalt chloride and DMF (dimethyl fumarate), in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 412/2012. It is safe, inert, and stable, suitable for many non-food industrial applications.
