||| Products "  Desiccants      Activated Alumina Balls   Activated Alumina developed and manufactured by DESICCA CHEMICALS is of superior quality adsorbent / desiccant. Activated Alumina is manufactured by latest technology to attain the high quality properties such as Adsorption, Surface area, Pore Volume and Mechanical strength. The main advantage of our Activated Alumina are ease of handling, non-corrosive nature, capacity for repeated regeneration, Inert towards liquid water, stability to fairly high temperature, low resistance to gas flow, great mechanical strength and can achieve low dew point of - 75°C.   Activated Alumina Balls Size : 2 - 6 mm   Activated Alumina Balls Size : 5 - 8 mm   SPECIFICATIONS : ACTIVATED ALUMINA Grade IS - I Form Beads Beads Beads Beads Size (mm or mic) 5 - 8 2 - 4 1 - 3 2 - 6 Bulk Density (gm/lit) 0.75 - 0.85 0.76 - 0.84 0.76 - 0.86 0.75 - 0.85 Surface area (m2/gm) 345 - 415 325 - 365 325 - 375 325 - 365 Pore Volume (cc/gm) 0.40 - 0.50 0.42 - 0.48 0.42 - 0.48 0.42 - 0.48 Adsorption Capacity (60% RH) 21. 5 NA 22 NA Attrition Loss (%) 0.2 0.5 max. 0.5 max. 0.5 max.

We do manufactures tailor made Activated Alumina for various applications to be used as Specialty Adsorbent, Catalyst / Catalyst Carrier, Bed Support etc. DESICCA GRADE Activated Alumina is used for drying of air, gases, and liquids. Purification and conditioning of insulating oil and Industrial oils. Removal of acidic impurities and trace metal scavenging in organic streams and inorganic gases (fluoride scavenging in HF alkylation and feedstock purification). Removal of oil vapours from gases. Purification of drinking water e.g. removal of floride compounds etc. Used in refrigeration circuits, transit packing for goods like electronic pharmaceutical and food. Used as catalyst & catalyst bed support / carriers. Grade FR - I used as fire retardant fillers.   SPECIFICATIONS : ACTIVATED ALUMINA BALLS (For Bed Support) Physical Properties   Individual Ball Density (kg/ltr.) 3.20 min Apparent Porosity (%) 10 max. PCE Orton Cone/°C +38/1835°C C.C.S.(point load) kg., min 1/8" ¼" 3/8" ½"75 150 300 400 Chemical Specification Al2O3 99% min. SiO2 0.30% max. Fe2O3 0.20% max. Na2O 0.40% max. CaO 0.10% max.   APPLICATIONS Alumina Balls when used as bed toppings and supports will act as filters to remove many impurities from the gas stream & help in uniform distribution of the feed gas. Presence of Alumina Balls at the top & bottom of the catalyst bed, keep the bed intact during pressure fluctuation. It can withstand high thermal shocks and are unaffected by repeated emergency shutdown and startups. The Alumina refractory bed supports are specially useful as inert catalyst support in secondary reformers of ammonia manufacturing plant and also oil refineries and chemical process industries.   SPECIFICATIONS : CERAMIC BALLS (For Bed Support) Physical Properties   Individual Ball Density (kg/ltr.) 2 Apparent Porosity (%) 2.0 max. PCE Orton Cone/°C +23/1600°C C.C.S.(point load) kg., min 300 Chemical Specification Al2O3 + SiO2 90 - 95 % Al2O3 20 - 35% SiO2 58 - 72 % Fe2O3 0.04% max. Na2O + K2O 3.5% max. CaO + MgO 1.0% max   APPLICATIONS As refractory bed top plugs and supports in order to protect the catalyst bed from thermal impurities so that the catalyst bed is kept intact in spite of wide pressure variation.   PACKAGING Activated Alumina Balls (for Adsorption) 50 kg or 160kg in MS Drum with inside polyliner Activated Alumina Balls (for Bed Support) Steel drum of 200 litres with inside polyliner containing 280 kg Ceramic Balls (for Bed Support) Steel drum of 200 litres with inside polyliner containing 280 kg     ÍTop / Back
