Versal Alumina Powders

If you’re looking for versatility, reliability and quality, look no farther than UOP’s family of Versal aluminas.

Named for their versatility, UOP’s Versal aluminas offer you a wide array of high purity alumina powders in a variety of physical forms. They are primarily used as catalyst supports, washcoat slurries and binders. They can also be used in the manufacture of abrasives and polishing media.

As a result of UOP’s ongoing product innovations, the Versal line now offers aluminas with varying densities and dispersibility ranges, including pseudoboehmite, gamma, alpha, and bayerite aluminas.

Our V-200 and V-300 powders are ideal for most catalytic applications, because of their low acid dispersibility characteristic that results in catalyst substrates with a highly macroporous structure. In addition, the V-700 and V-900 powders offer even greater versatility because of their higher level of dispersibility and density. They can be blended with other Versal products or used alone to produce high-strength catalytic supports with extremely narrow pore distributions.

Find out what our family of Versal aluminas can do for your particular adsorbent applications. Contact us today using our information request form.
