Molecular Sieve 13X
High-capacity adsorbent for oxygen generation and deep dehydration
13X zeolite with the largest common pore (10Å), offering maximum adsorption capacity for PSA oxygen and heavy-molecule removal.
Product Overview
Molecular sieve 13X (Na-X zeolite) has the largest commercially common pore opening at approximately 10Å, giving it the highest water and CO₂ capacity of standard sieves. In medical oxygen concentrators and industrial air separation units, 13X provides superior nitrogen/oxygen separation; in gas drying it achieves the deepest dew points.
Our 13X is produced with a high exchangeable-cation balance that maximizes nitrogen adsorption capacity, delivering reliable oxygen purity of 90-95% in PSA systems and extended runtime between regenerations.
Key Features
- Highest water capacity of standard zeolites
- Superior N₂/O₂ separation for PSA oxygen
- Removes CO₂, H₂S and large trace molecules
- Deep dew point performance below -70°C
- Optimized for medical and industrial PSA
