Molecular sieve 5A is an alkali metal aluminosilicate, it is the calcium form of the type A crystal structure.
Molecular sieve 5A has an effective pore opening of 5 angstroms (0.5 nm). It will adsorb molecules with a kinetic diameter of less than 5 Angstroms and exclude molecules larger than 0.5nm. It is especially suitable for PSA adsorber applications where it may be used for the separation of normal- and iso- paraffins (C4 to C6 species), in PSA hydrogen purification and in oxygen concentrators.
