Molecular Sieve 3A

Descripción del producto

Introduction XINTAO Molecular Sieve type 3A is an alkali metal alumino-silicate; it is the potassium form of the type A crystal structure. Type 3A has an effective pore opening of about 3 angstroms (0.3nm). This is large enough to allow in moisture, but excludes molecules such as unsaturated hydrocarbons which can potentially form polymers; and this maximises lifetime when dehydrating such molecules. Typical Chemical Formula 0.*5 K2O . 0.*5 Na2O . Al2O3 . 2 SiO2 . 4.5H2O SiO2 : Al2O3 ≈2 Application Drying of unsaturated hydrocarbons (***** ethylene, propylene, butadien) Cracked Gas Drying Drying of natural gas, if COS minimization is essential, or a minimum co-adsorption of hydrocarbons is required. Drying of highly polar compounds, such as methanol and ethanol Drying of liquid alcohol Static, (non-regenerative) dehydration of insulating glass units, whether air filled or gas-filled. Drying of refrigerants Regeneration XINTAO molecular sieve Type 3A can be regenerated by either heating in the case of thermal swing processes; or by lowering the pressure in the case of pressure swing processes. To remove moisture from a 3A molecular sieve, a temperature of ******0�C is required. A properly regenerated molecular sieve can give moisture dew points below ***0�C. The outlet concentrations on a pressure swing process will depend on the gas present, and on the conditions of the proc
