Molecular sieves are synthetic and naturally occurring zeolites with well-defined structures. They stand out among various materials because they have pore structure, catalytic, conductive and magnetic properties. There are two common molecular sieves, i.e. calcium aluminium silicate and sodium aluminium silicate. The former has a pore size of 0.5 nm, whereas the latter has a pore size of approximately 1 nm.
“Molecular sieves are of great importance because they can be tailored for a range of different applications. Molecules can be separated based on afferent sizes, so molecular sieves are very appropriate to be used in size-exclusion chromatography. Also, they can be used as adsorbents for hydrocarbon drying to remove dissolved water from hydrocarbon gases and liquids,” says the Marketing Chief from Alfa Chemistry Materials.
