Molecular Sieve 3A
Molecular Sieve 3A is an alkali metal aluminosilicate, it is the potassium form of the type A crystal structure. Type 3A has an effective pore opening of about 3 angstroms ( 0.3nm) . It adsorbs molecules with effective diameters smaller than approximately 3 angstroms. But excludes molecules such as unsaturated hydrocarbons.

Recommended Application
1. Drying of unsaturated hydrocarbons ( e.g. ethylene, propylene, butadiene)
2. Cracked Gas Drying.
3. Drying of natural gas, if COS minimization is essential, or a minimum co-adsorption of
hydrocarbons is required.
4. Drying of highly polar compounds, such as methanol and ethanol.
5. Static, ( non-regenerative) dehydration of insulating glass units, whether air filled or gas-filled.
