NaY is a zeolite ceramic composed of a sodium-exchanged Y-framework structure, belonging to the faujasite family of microporous aluminosilicates. This material is widely used in industrial separation, purification, and catalytic processes where its regular pore structure (approximately 7.4 Å effective pore diameter) enables selective molecular sieving and ion exchange. NaY is valued in petroleum refining, air separation, water treatment, and catalytic cracking applications because its thermal stability and tunable acidity make it superior to alternatives for separating molecules of similar size and handling chemically demanding feedstreams.
