Why moisture is picked up by zeolites?

Zeolites are a mineral that can store up to four times more heat than water. Due to zeolites being extremely porous it is able to pick up moisture.


Are zeolites igneous sedimentary or metamorphic rocks?

Zeolites are a group of minerals which have formed in the pockets or vugs of solidified lava. They are therefore minerals, not rocks.


What is the mineral zeolites hardness?

Zeolites are more like a family of mineral ... Some of the more common mineral zeolites are analcime, chabazite, clinoptilolite, heulandite, natrolite, phillipsite, and stilbite. Each has it's own hardness. Most are in the 3-5,5 range.


Could zeolites conceivably be used to filter radium Ra2 ions from water contaminated with these radioactive ions?

incorrect water will destroy zeolites on contact, unless it's water vapor


What is a zeolites a rock or mineral?

Zeolites are a group of minerals. Their interesting and unusual atomic structure gives them some interesting properties that have become very useful in recent times, particularly in water purification.

What is differences between Zeolites and silica-alumina?

Though both of these substances are made of an aluminosilicate framework, there are some key differences in regard to their morphologies, physical properties, and acidity. For instance silica-alumina is an amorphous material, and zeolites on the other hand are cyrstalline in nature. A key physical difference is that zeolites are typically microporous (i.e. very small pores) and silica-alumina are mesoporous (i.e. moderate sized pores). Lastly the Bronsted acid sites on zeolites have been found to significanly stronger than those on silica-alumina, due to the homogeneity of the zeolite.


What is the price per ton of zeolites?

between $60 and $300 depends on the grind and the purity.
