Buyer's Digest

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

Original product description

Molecular Sieve 3A Molecular Sieve 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 maximizes lifetime when dehydrating such molecules. Typical Chemical Formula 0.4K2O 0.6. Na2O Al2O3 2.

OSiO2 4.5H2O SiO2: Al2O3 ≈ 2 Typical Application 1) Drying of unsaturated hydrocarbons (e. G. Ethylene, propylene, butadien) 2) Cracked Gas Drying 3) Drying of natural gas, if COS minimization is essential, or a minimum co-adsorption of hydrocarbons is required.

4) Drying of highly polar compounds, such as methanol and ethanol 5) Drying of liquid alcohol 6) Static, (non-regenerative) dehydration of insulating glass units, whether air filled or gas-filled.

7) Drying of refrigerants Regeneration 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 200-230° C is required.

A properly regenerated molecular sieve can give moisture dew points below -100° C. The outlet concentrations on a pressure swing process will depend on the gas present, and on the conditions of the process.

Size 3A - Zeolites are available in beads of 1-2 mm, (10x18 mesh) 2-3 mm, (8x12 mesh), 2.5-5 mm, (4x8 mesh) and as powder, and in pellet 1.6", 3.2". Attention To avoid damp and pre-adsorption of organic before running, or must to be reactivated.

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.
