Molecular Sieve 5A
5A molecular sieve is a calcium-form A-type zeolite adsorbent with an effective pore opening of approximately 5 angstroms. It adsorbs normal (straight-chain) paraffins and small polar molecules, and is used in separation and purification duties where selective adsorption is required.
- Separation of normal paraffins from branched-chain and cyclic hydrocarbons
- Pressure swing adsorption for hydrogen purification
- Removal of water, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from gas streams
