Automotive Compressed Air Drying with Sorbead® Auto WS
BASF Sorbead® Auto WS adsorbents are aluminosilicate gels in the form of hard, spherical beads. They are essential in removing water from automotive compressed air systems to prevent corrosion, avoid freezing, improve performance, and extend hardware lifespan. Sorbead® Auto WS is the most energy-efficient and environmentally friendly adsorbent available for the automotive desiccant industry.
Sorbead® Auto WS is the ideal adsorbent for use in automotive applications such as air brake dryer cartridges and air suspension parts due to its:
- High capacity for water vapor
- Extends duration between regeneration cycles, reducing energy consumption
- Liquid-water stability
- Liquid water in system does not damage adsorbent or diminish performance
- Low attrition rate
- Minimal generation of fines, extending adsorbent life
- High crush strength
- Can withstand high pressure differential without degrading
