AOKTEC® Molecular sieve 5A (Zeolites) is a calcium form of alkali alumina silicate with an effective pore diameter of 5A°. It will adsorb all the molecules with a kinetic diameter of fewer than 5 angstroms and exclude higher than that.
Molecular Sieve 5A can be used for drying and purification of gas and liquid in oil, gas oxygen industry, ammonia decomposition industry and other industries, includes: the adsorption of water, carbon dioxide, ethylene, and propylene from feed gas in air purification units and the separation of air, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen from mixed gas streams.
