What type of chemical and physical transformation occurs in the blue sphere silica gel when it is subjected to very high temperatures above the temperature supported by it for several minutes?

does it turn into a compound that will absorb and store moisture and water inside and can leak if it breaks? ex. maximum temperature of a microwave oven in 10 and 15 minutes

my doubt is another what happens to it at high temperatures it turns into something that absorbs and releases liquid
