Granular molecular sieve may be obtained, without necessitating any activng treatment, by subjecting a vinylidene chloride copolymer to a thermal carbonization treatment for removal of hydrochloric acid, pulverizing the resultant product to a grain size smaller than 100 mesh size, adding 15 to 35 parts by weight of a carbonaceous sintering agent and 8 to 15 parts by weight of an organic pelletizer capable of gas generation by heating to 100 parts by weight of the pulverized product, pelletizing the resultant mixture and carbonizing the resultant pellets at a temperature of 400 to 900.degree. C for a period of 2 to 6 hours. The pore diameter of this molecular sieve can be suitably controlled within a range of from 5 to 10 A by appropriately selecting the sintering agent and pelletizer employed and the conditions of the thermal treatment.
A method of manufacturing carbonaceous granular molecular sieves having a pore diameter in the range of about 3-10 A comprising the steps of subjecting a vinylidene chloride copolymer to a thermal carbonization treatment for removal of hydrogen chloride gas, cooling and pulverizing the resultant product to a grain size smaller than 100 mesh, admixing per 100 parts of said pulverized product 15 to 35 parts of a carbonaceous sintering agent and 8 to 15 parts of an organic pelletizing binder generating gas upon heating, pelletizing the resultant mixture and carbonizing the resultant pellets without activation at a temperature ranging from 400.degree. C. to 900.degree. C. for a period ranging from 2 to 6 hours, all parts being by weight.
