Which risk elevates when cooling molecular sieve desiccants?

A)Exothermic water adsorption decreases capacity
B)Endothermic oxygen desorption increases flammability
C)Molecular clustering reduces effective pore size
D)Framework flexibility impairs uniform adsorption

💡 Explanation

Molecular clustering around nucleation points is the mechanism which occurs because reduces pore accessibility and diffusivity decreases the effective surface area; therefore, decreased material kinetics results, rather than others like changing exothermic reactions, because molecular sieves selectivity depends on geometry.
