MSE PRO 1 kg Molecular Sieves 5A Beads
SKU: MS0112
Product details:
Molecular Sieves type 5A is an alkali alumino silicate. It is the calcium form of the Type A crystal structure. Type 5A has an effective pore opening of 5 angstroms (0.5 nm). It will adsorb molecules with a kinetic diameter of less than 5 Angstrom and exclude those larger.
It is especially suitable for PSA absorber applications where it may be used for the separation of normal- and iso- paraffins (C4 to C6 species), in PSA hydrogen purification and in oxygen concentrators.

Applications |
- The strong ionic forces of the divalent calcium ion make it an excellent adsorbent to remove water, CO2, H2S from sour natural gas streams, while minimizing COS formation. Light mercaptans are also adsorbed. - It is also used for the separation of normal- and iso- paraffins. - Production of high purity N2, O2, H2 and inert gases from mixed gas |

Note |
Drying or regeneration is recommended before first use to remove the absorbed moisture and organic molecular. Heat the molecular sieves to 200-315 °C purging with a carrier gas. |
