Zeolite a

Zeolite A (CAS 1318-02-1 ), also marketed as Zeosorb, is a synthetic aluminosilicate mineral engineered for ion exchange and sequestration across industrial and consumer applications.

Its structured microporous framework selectively captures calcium and magnesium ions, making it a functional replacement for phosphate-based builders in detergent systems.

In laundry and automatic dishwashing detergents, it acts as the primary water softening builder, sequestering hardness ions to prevent soap scum and improve surfactant efficiency.

Water treatment operations use it for ammonia removal and heavy metal capture in municipal and industrial effluent streams to ensure compliance with environmental regulations.

In agriculture, it is incorporated into soil amendment blends and slow-release fertilizer carriers, improving nutrient retention in sandy or degraded soils for better crop yields.

Construction product formulators add it to cement and lightweight aggregate mixes to improve moisture management and long-term structural performance in various building projects.

The material is supplied as a fine white powder, with particle size and bulk density varying by grade. Standard commercial grades include detergent-grade, technical-grade, and agricultural-grade.

Purity levels and ion-exchange capacity are the primary specification parameters buyers use to qualify supply sources and ensure the material meets specific application requirements.
