Overview
4A 8x12 Molecular Sieve Desiccant by Delta Adsorbents is a high-performance zeolite desiccant designed for selective moisture removal in industrial and commercial processes. With a pore size of ~4 Å, it efficiently adsorbs water molecules while excluding larger compounds, making it ideal for drying gases, liquids, and air streams where moisture control is critical.
Where it fits
- Gas drying: moisture removal from natural gas, hydrogen, and industrial process gases
- Liquid drying: efficient dehydration of solvents, refrigerants, and specialty liquids
- Air drying: moisture control in compressed air and pneumatic systems
- Insulated glass units: prevents fogging and condensation in double-pane glass
- Cryogenic operations: reliable performance in low-temperature dehydration processes
Key advantages
- High adsorption capacity for water vapor at standard conditions
- Selective 4 Å pore size excludes hydrocarbons and larger molecules
- Durable crystalline structure with strong crush resistance
- Regenerable by heat for extended service life
- Available in multiple industrial packaging formats (220 lb drums, 2000 lb bulk bags)
