5A Molecular Sieve

Molecular sieves are working on the principle of adsorption that is the process of attraction of molecules from a stream of gas or liquid to an exposed surface area of molecular sieve. The adsorption process of the molecular sieve involves chemisorption and capillary condensation. Molecular sieve 5A 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. 5A will also adsorb a molecule that 3A and 4A will adsorb. It will be the most suitable zeolite for PSA adsorption technology. It offers a tremendously effective adsorbent with a contact surface and large porosity.

5A molecular sieve will contribute to a larger surface area for better adsorption efficacy with required bulk density and appropriate crushing strength to lower the dusting in systems.
