13XAPG Molecular Sieve

13XAPG Molecular Sieve is Sodium aluminosilicate, It could absorb the molecular which diameter is not more than 9 angstroms. It can remove impurities too larger to fit into a type A crystal and is commonly used to separate N2 from O2. 13X APG Molecular Sieve is the sodium form of the type X crystal and has a much larger pore opening than the type A crystals. It has the highest capacity of common adsorbents and excellent mass transfer rates.

Product Introduction

13X-APG molecular sieve is an alkali metal aluminosilicate with a sodium X-type crystal structure. Its pore size is about 10Å (angstroms), so it can adsorb molecules with a critical diameter of less than 10Å. It is widely used due to its efficient co-adsorption ability (capable of removing water and carbon dioxide simultaneously) and excellent carbon dioxide selective adsorption in certain situations.

Chemical formula: Na2O*Al2O3*(2.8±0.2)SiO2*(6-7)H2O

Silicon-aluminum ratio: SiO2/Al2O3≈2.6-3.0

Applications

  • Air Separation Unit (Specialized for ASU): Deeply removes moisture (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) from feed air.
  • Natural Gas and Liquefied Gas Processing: Drying (removes moisture) and desulfurization (removes sulfur-containing impurities such as hydrogen sulfide).
  • General Gas Deep Drying: Deeply dries various industrial gases (such as compressed air and industrial gas).
  • Adsorption of Specific Organic Compounds: Can adsorb molecules with larger critical diameters, such as certain aromatic hydrocarbons and branched-chain hydrocarbons.
