Characteristics of molecular sieve prices fluctuation and possible influencing factors

The core reason for the significant price difference

Product model and application: Different models (3A, 4A, 5A, 13X, etc.) of molecular sieves have significant price differences. Due to differences in pore size structure and adsorption performance.

For example, on June 26, 2025, the ex factory price of 13X molecular sieve reached 12200 yuan/ton, while during the same period, some manufacturers of 3a4a5a molecular sieve quoted prices as low as 3400-3600 yuan/ton3.
Manufacturer pricing strategy: Products of the same model have significant price differences due to differences in manufacturer brand, production costs, and sales channels. For example, in January 2025, the price of Henan Zhengyuan 3a4a5a molecular sieve was 3600 yuan/ton, while the price of Henan Sendi 4A molecular sieve was 8900 yuan/ton1 during the same period.
Time and market supply and demand: From October 2024 to January 2025, the mainstream prices of 3a 4a 5a molecular sieves ranged from 8200-8600 yuan/ton. In June 2025, some manufacturers’ prices dropped significantly to 3400-3600 yuan/ton, which may reflect changes in market supply and demand or short-term promotional behavior.

Limitations of market information to be aware of


Regional restrictions: The existing data is mainly concentrated in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province and surrounding manufacturers, and may not fully represent the national market price level.
Data timeliness: Some low-priced data (such as 3400-3600 yuan/ton) may be short-term quotes or promotional prices from specific manufacturers, and further verification of long-term stability is required.
Product specification differences: Failure to clearly distinguish details such as particle size, purity, and molding process of molecular sieves may affect the accuracy of price comparisons.

Summary and Suggestions


From October 2024 to June 2025, the price of molecular sieves in Henan Province showed significant model differentiation, large differences in manufacturer quotations, and significant short-term fluctuations. To obtain accurate price trends, it is recommended to:

Clearly specify the specific model (such as 3A, 13X, etc.) and application scenarios (such as oxygen production, drying, etc.);
Compare long-term quotes from multiple manufacturers and consult real-time market supply and demand situation;
Pay attention to the production capacity and demand forecasts in industry reports, such as the growth trend of the oxygen molecular sieve market, which may drive up the prices of related models by 4.
The above price data is for reference only. Actual transactions shall be subject to the latest quotation and contract terms of the manufacturer.
