The invention concerns a conditioned composition comprising at least a
liquid absorbed on a support containing a precipitated silica, said
silica being in the form of substantially spherical beads and having: a
mean pellet size greater than 150 .mu.m; a filling density in compact
state(DRT) greater than 0.29; an oversize rate for a grid with mesh
aperture size of 75 .mu.m of at least 92% by weight. The invention also
concerns the use of such a silica as a support for liquid.
