5 kg bulk silica gel | white spherical | canister

White spherical silica gel in bulk, packaged in a sealed 5 kg HDPE tank, high purity. Its spheroidal shape ensures uniform distribution, high resistance to crushing, and consistent performance even under repeated thermal cycles. Especially suitable for technical and industrial environments requiring effective and long-lasting humidity control.

Unlike the granular version, the spherical form is preferred in dehumidification systems, cartridge dryers, and dry air circuits for its better flow regularity and compatibility with standardized equipment.

Product Features

Composition: purified silicon dioxide in spherical form.

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

Structure: regular spherical shape, with high porosity and extended active surface.

Standard particle size: 2–5 mm

Stability: non-deliquescent, remains dry to the touch even when fully saturated, without releasing moisture.

Adsorption Capacity

Silica gel adsorbs moisture up to 65 °C, with best performance at room temperature (20–30 °C) and high relative humidity (60–90% RH).

Indicative moisture adsorption values depending on relative humidity:

* Note: values are measured under laboratory conditions and represent average data. Actual performance may vary depending on use configuration, air flow, particle size, and container.

Main Applications

This bulk white spherical silica gel is ideal for industrial use requiring extended adsorption cycles and uniform material distribution:

• Industrial processes: for humidity control in technical systems and production environments.
• Drying systems: used in desiccant columns, dry air cartridges, and closed-loop equipment.
• Laboratories and chemical sector: for drying technical gases and controlled-humidity test environments.

Packaging and Availability

Packaged in a sealed 5 kg HDPE tank, easy to handle and ideal for technical mid-size applications.

Also available in other formats: 500 g, 1 kg, 15 kg, 20 kg, 25 kg, and 30 kg to meet different operational needs.

Immediate availability also for small quantities offers flexibility for labs, service teams, and companies requiring efficient restocking.

Safety and Compliance

This silica gel complies with European non-toxicity regulations. It is free from cobalt chloride and DMF (dimethyl fumarate), in accordance with EU Regulation No. 412/2012. Safe, inert, and stable, suitable for a wide range of non-food industrial applications.
