On NaY and HY, aromatic compounds are selectively adsorbed in preference to paraffins and naphthenes. Smaller aromatic compounds are adsorbed in preference to larger aromatic compounds. All the compounds studied can be sorbed into the pore structure of the zeolites and the selectivies are primarily a reflection of relative affinity for the zeolite and steric effects rather than a sieving effect.
