Granular Zeolite 3A Molecular Sieve Desiccant for Alcohol Dehydration & Drying
Description of 3A Molecular Sieve Desiccant:
3A molecular sieve belongs to a potassium-type crystal structure, which is a kind of A-type molecular sieve. It has uniform pores and strong adsorption capacity. Compared with other molecular sieves, it has a very good desorption depth, is generally dry, and has a dew point of about -80 degrees. The national standard of 3A molecular sieve is GB/T10504-2017. Before leaving the factory, manufacturers need to activate 3A molecular sieve, and the activation temperature is generally not lower than 500 degrees. Wide range of use.
