3A Molecular Sieve is an alkali metal alumino-silicate; it is the potassium form of the type A crystal structure. Type 3A has an effective pore opening of about 3 angstroms (0.3nm). This is large enough to allow in moisture, but excludes molecules such as unsaturated hydrocarbons which can potentially form polymers; and this maximises lifetime when dehydrating such molecules.

Typical Application:
 Drying of unsaturated hydrocarbons (e.g. ethylene, propylene, butadien).
 Cracked Gas Drying.
 Drying of natural gas, if COS minimization is essential, or a minimum co-adsorption of hydrocarbons is required.
 Drying of highly polar compounds, such as methanol and ethanol.
 Drying of liquid alcohol.
 Static, (non-regenerative) dehydration of insulating glass units, whether air filled or gas-filled.
 Drying of refrigerants.
