Buyer's Digest

Use this page as a product-first sourcing checkpoint before sending an RFQ. Category: Molecular Sieves. Confirm application fit, capacity, materials, destination, lead time and compliance requirements before comparing suppliers.

Original product description

This 5A molecular sieve is an alkali aluminosilicate in the calcium form of the Type A crystal structure. Its effective pore opening is 5 angstroms (0.5 nm), allowing it to adsorb molecules with kinetic diameters below 5 angstroms while excluding larger molecules.

The material is offered in nominal 1.6 mm, 3.2 mm and 4 mm pellet specifications. Published technical data for the listed pellet grades include diameters of 1.5–1.7 mm and 3.0–3.3 mm, bulk density of at least 0.65 g/ml, static water adsorption of at least 22%, and shipped water content of no more than 1.5%.

The stated wear-ratio limits are 0.20% for the 1.5–1.7 mm grade and 0.40% for the 3.0–3.3 mm grade. Crushing strength is listed as at least 30 N/cm and 45 N/cm respectively.

Supported uses include removing water, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from sour natural-gas streams;adsorbing light mercaptans;separating normal and iso-paraffins;and producing high-purity nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen and inert gases from mixed gas streams.

The product is also described for pressure-swing adsorption hydrogen purification and oxygen concentrator processes. Regeneration can be performed by heating in thermal-swing processes or by reducing pressure in pressure-swing processes.

A temperature of 250–300°C is specified for removing moisture during thermal regeneration. Process results depend on the feed gas and operating conditions, so buyers should validate cycle design and outlet requirements for their own system.

Before procurement, confirm whether the requested 4 mm grade is a pellet or spherical form, because the published dimensional table distinguishes pellet and sphere ranges.

Buyers should also confirm the exact diameter tolerance, crushing-strength test method, operating pressure and temperature limits, feed-gas composition, required adsorption capacity under process conditions, regeneration protocol, packaging format, batch documentation and container loading plan.

The material should be protected from moisture and organic pre-adsorption before use;reactivation may be required if exposure occurs.

Buyer tips

  • State quantity range and split-delivery needs before price comparison.
  • Add certification, material or inspection standards when they affect acceptance.
  • For time-sensitive projects, include target arrival date and destination.
  • For special applications, describe operating condition, installation environment and duty cycle.

FAQ

What should buyers confirm first?

Confirm application, specification, quantity, destination and lead-time requirements before comparing offers.

Can buyers inquire when specs are incomplete?

Yes. Add model, material, size, use case and inspection needs in the RFQ to make replies comparable.

How should this listing be evaluated?

Check title, category, specifications and related keywords against the actual sourcing requirement.
