The powder works because of synthetic compounds known as molecular sieves.
The adsorption capacity of the molecular sieve is quickly reached.
Sometimes, it is also called 4A zeolite molecular sieve.
A molecular sieve is a material with very small holes of precise and uniform size.
A molecular sieve can adsorb water up to 22% of its own weight.
This new process uses molecular sieves to remove water from fuel ethanol.
Other drying agents such as molecular sieves are also effective.
I put some of my bright young men to work and they have made what we call a "molecular sieve".
The advantage was a much more professional regeneration of the molecular sieves.
The researchers who invented these types of particles planned to use them as molecular sieves.
