Molecular Sieve 3A
The pore size of 3A molecular sieve is 3 A0 . It does not adsorb any molecular larger than 3 A0. According to the industrial application specialties, we endue our products with the characters of higher adsorption speed, stronger crushing and anti-contaminative resistance, more cyclic times and longer work-span. All these advantage have made it come to be the most essential and necessary desiccant in the fields of the deep drying, refinery, polymerization for cracked gases, ethylene, propylene and any other non-acidic gases or liquids in petroleum and chemical industrials.

Typical Application :

Type 3A molecular sieves should be used to dry dehydration solvents for electron microscopy. Most common solvents (acetone, ethanol, and methanol, etc.) need to be anhydrous for electron microscopy embedding work using epoxy resins, yet they have a tendency to pick up atmospheric water when bottles are opened. Molecular sieves are used to dehydrate the solvents used in the final stages of dehydration and embedding.
  • Dehydration of many kinds of liquids (say ethanol)
  • Dehydration of air
  • Dehydration of refrigerant
  • Dehydration of natural gas or methane
  • Dehydration of cracked gas, ethylene, ethyne, propylene or butadiene
3A molecular sieve is mainly applied to absorb water molecular in drying natural gas and oil gases, especially in drying Catalystic Splitting Decomposition Oil gases and Alkene. So it is usually used as fine drying agent in medicine, food, glass industry and so on.
