Focus 1

Siliporite® molecular sieves

World-renowned expertise

Molecular sieves work by allowing small molecules to pass through while retaining large ones, depending on the size of the mesh. When viewed at a microscopic level, these porous materials, made from a mixture of synthetic zeolite and clay, form an evenly spaced three-dimensional mesh. They perform essential adsorption, drying and separation functions in a wide variety of fields. With a long history of expertise in this area, Arkema is now one of the world’s leading specialists, under the brand name Siliporite®. Its ongoing innovation policy and production capacity at the Honfleur (France) and Inowrocław (Poland) sites enable it to offer high-performance solutions for all application markets.
