molekylsieve
A molecular sieve is a porous material that can be used as a desiccant, or drying agent. It is also used to separate molecules based on size. Molecular sieves are typically made from zeolites, which are crystalline aluminosilicates with a very uniform pore structure. The pore size of a molecular sieve can be controlled by varying the composition of the zeolite.
Molecular sieves work by selectively adsorbing molecules that are small enough to fit into their pores. Larger
Common applications for molecular sieves include drying gases such as natural gas, hydrogen, and oxygen. They
