Molecular sieves are crystalline metal aluminosilicates having a threedimensional interconnecting network of silica and alumina tetrahedra. Natural water of hydration is removed from this network by heating to produce uniform cavities which selectively adsorb molecules of a specific size. A 4 to 8-mesh sieve is normally used in gasphase ...

This separation can be carried out by using suitable adsorbents, such as carbon molecular sieves. In this work, a CMS was prepared by deposition of polyfurfuryl alcohol polymer on activated carbon. After deposition of the polymer, the material was carbonized at 800masculineC for 2 hours. This material was used to separate O2/N2 mixtures and CO2 ...

Molecular sieves are often utilized in the petroleum industry, especially for the purification of gas streams and in the chemistry laboratory for separating compounds and drying reaction starting materials. Molecular sieves should be used to dry dehydration solvents for electron microscopy. ... Polyfurfuryl alcohol derived carbon molecular sieves;

A convenient and effective approach has been developed to prepare carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes derived from poly ( furfuryl alcohol) with high O2/N2 separation performance in this paper.

The system platinum supported on a carbon molecular sieve has been prepared by carbonizing polyfurfuryl alcohol containing chloroplatinic acid and an …

down the choice of preferred sorbents to carbon molecular sieves (CMS), such as carbons derived from polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) or polyfurfuryl alcohol. A unique feature of CMS materials is a narrow pore-size distribution, with almost all pores residing in the micropore region (pores smaller than 2 nm)5. We are unaware of

Polyfurfuryl alcohol (PFA) is largely used in chemistry due to its excellent thermal stability, remarkable resistance to acidic conditions, as well as to degradation caused by fire and cor- ... molecular sieve adsorbents and electrodes [10, 11]. PFA can be *e-mail: [email protected]

Molecular sieves will, therefore, remove gas or liquid impurities to very low levels (ppm or less). Another feature of molecular sieve adsorbents is their ability to separate gases or liquids by molecular size or polarity. The pore, or cage, openings are the same size as many molecules, e.g., in the case of hydrocarbon paraffins, straight ...

A shape-selective carbon molecular sieve support-platinum catalyst system has been prepared by carbonizing polyfurfuryl alcohol (PFA) containing small amounts of chloroplatinic acid. Although the resulting coke behaves as a 4A molecular sieve, grinding to a particle size of about 50μ allows appreciable adsorption of n -butane, due to the ...

A molecular sieve is a material with pores (very small holes) of uniform size. These pore diameters are similar in size to small molecules, and thus large molecules cannot enter or be adsorbed, while smaller molecules can.As a mixture of molecules migrate through the stationary bed of porous, semi-solid substance referred to as a sieve (or matrix), the components of highest molecular weight ...
