Molecular Sieves, 5A

Catalog Number	ACM69912794-4
CAS Number	69912-79-4
Structure
Molecular Formula	Ca4.53[(AlO2)12·30H2O
Application	Molecular Sieves 5A serve a crucial function in various technological applications due to their unique ability to selectively adsorb molecules These molecular sieves are crystalline aluminosilicates similar to clays and feldspars and belong to the zeolite class of minerals possessing a distinct characteristic of undergoing dehydration without altering their crystal structure This quality allows them to maintain an intricate network of regularly spaced channels accounting for nearly half of their total volume which facilitates the adsorption process The dehydrated form of these sieves is highly efficient in capturing molecules such as water thanks to their empty cavities that readily absorb small enough particles This selective adsorption and sieving capability distinguishes Molecular Sieves 5A making them indispensable for drying gases and liquids effectuating molecular separations based on size and polarity functioning as ion-exchangers and catalysts and applying them in the petroleum industry to remove normal paraffins from distillates
Packaging	10 g; 100 g;
