AOKTEC® Molecular sieve 13X (Zeolites) is one type of an alkali alumina silicate, zeolite 13X. With an effective pore opening of 10 angstroms (1 nm), this is a highly selective adsorbent. It’s designed for the elimination of trace contaminants from air and other gases.
Molecular Sieves 13X can be used as an excellent desiccant in gas, chemical and air separation., includes: Air generation in the Medical Oxygen industry and air compressor systems, Utilization as a catalyst carrier, and Co-adsorption of CO2, H2O, and H2S for gas dryers and purifiers.
Molecular Sieve 13X will adsorb molecules with a kinetic diameter of less than 0.9 nm and exclude those which are larger.
Benefits
Non-toxic
Storage of thermo-chemical energy (cold or heat)
Very suitable for removal of mercaptan
