Sorbchem - Model 13X -Molecular Sieve

The 13X Molecular Sieve is a synthetically made zeolite with a three-dimensional structure composed of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3). It has a pore diameter of 10A° (1.0nm) and is the sodium form of the type X crystal.

The 13X Molecular Sieve is based on the molecule form the type of X crystalline foam, which has a larger pore size than other types of A crystalline form, which are 3A, 4A, and 5A. This makes it an effective adsorbent for a wide range of industrial processes and applications.

The 13X Molecular Sieve is available in both pellet and bead forms, providing high flexibility in its application and industrial use. Its sodium-based composition and larger pore size make it an effective adsorbent for a wide range of industrial processes.

The molecular sieve can be regenerated through two methods. The first method is via heating and purging the adsorbent with a carrier gas, and the second method is Pressure Swing Adsorption. The required temperature for regeneration of 13X Zeolite is 260-320°C, and the cooling period is necessary to reduce the molecular sieve temperature to room temperature before reuse. This ensures that the molecular sieve remains effective and efficient throughout its use and shelf life.
