The specific density of zeolites range from ~ 2.2 - 2.5 g/cc depending upon the composition. For most aluminosilicate materials a value of 2.4 g/cc is usually fairly safe for early estimations (back-of-the-napkin calculations). The bulk density of zeolites typically range from 0.8 - 1.1 g/cc depending upon the porosity of the zeolitic framework.

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.


What is the porosity of zeolites?

Zeolites have high porosity due to their unique crystalline structure, which contains regularly spaced micropores and mesopores. The porosity of zeolites allows them to selectively adsorb molecules based on their size and shape, making them useful in various applications such as catalysis and gas separation.

Are zeolites igneous sedimentary or metamorphic rocks?

Zeolites are typically formed in sedimentary and metamorphic environments, rather than volcanic or igneous settings. They are secondary minerals that form from the alteration of volcanic glass and ash by groundwater.


Does oxyclean contain zeolites?

Yes, OxiClean contains zeolites, which are natural minerals that help soften water and enhance the cleaning power of the product. Zeolites work by capturing and removing dirt and stains, making them effective in laundry and cleaning applications. This ingredient contributes to the overall effectiveness of OxiClean in breaking down tough stains.
