Product Introduction:
Molecular sieve 3A, also known as molecular sieve KA, with an aperture of about 3 angstroms, can be used for drying of gases and liquids as well as the dehydration of hydrocarbons. It is also widely used for the complete drying of petrol, cracked gases, ethylene, propylene and natural gases.
Molecular formula:
0.4K2O · 0.6Na2O · Al2O3 · 2.0SiO2 · 4.5H2O

Application:
Dehydration of many kinds of liquids (e. g: ethanol).
Drying for air, refrigerant, natural gas and methane.
Drying for cracked gas, ethylene, acetylene, propylene and butadiene Insulating glass desiccant.
Packaging:
Steel drum / paper drum / aluminum foil bag or per customer’s request.
Storage:
Avoid damping and any adsorption of water or organic substance before use. Otherwise it must be regenerated.
