PURPOSE: To obtain a zeolite suspension which exhibits low viscosity and can be transferred by means of a pump by compounding a siliconate or a siliconate deriv. into a suspension contg. zeolite.
CONSTITUTION: A zeolite suspension prepd. by incorporating a siliconate and/or a siliconate deriv. into a suspension contg. zeolite is provided. The amt. of siliconate to be used is a function of the specific surface area of the zeolite. This amt. is usually 0.01-2 wt.%, especially 0.05-0.3 wt.% to the suspension. A stabilizer besides the siliconate can be incorporated in the above described suspension. A cation from the alkaline earth group can be used as a stabilizer and the pref. cation is magnesium and especially, magnesium chloride, e.g. magnesium chloride hexahydrate is used. As other stabilizers which can be used, natural polysaccharides and bacterial or biogum polysaccharides can be exemplified.
