Zeolite......

Zeolites find wide use as ion-exchange agents, catalysts, and molecular filters in a range of industrial processes. The word "zeolite" comes from the Greek for "boiling stone," because of the early observation that zeolites release water when heated.

Average chemical composition of sodium zeolite is reported as Sodium Oxide - 17%, Aluminum Oxide - 28%, Silicon dioxide – 33% and water – 22%. The formula of sodium zeolite may be represented by NaAlSi2O6-H2O. Another name for this substance is hydrated aluminum silicate.
