A Process for the production and uses of a molecular sieve adsorbent blend product
with improved performance characteristics produced by preparing a zeolite powder,
preparing a highly dispersed attapulgite fiber binder, mixing the zeolite powder
with the highly dispersed attapulgite binder to form a mixture, forming molecular
sieve adsorbent products into a shaped material and calcining the shaped material,
wherein the tapped bulk density of the highly dispersed attapulgite fibers measured
according to DIN/ISO 787 is more than about 550 g/ml.
