Lubomir,
Molecular sieve sorbents are commonly used in foreline traps for systems with oil-lubricated rotary-vane roughing pumps and similar. You just want to know where to buy it? I.e. Kurt J. Lesker offers a 1 lbs. can here for 23 Euros:

The main issue might be grain size. Foreline traps are fairly large. I guess one could always grind the pellets down with a mortar and pestle or a ball mill, or look for another vendor

Subject: [3dem] exchange of zeolite in a Gatan 626 cryholder
Dear colleagues,
I wonder if it is possible to exchange the zeolite powder in the Gatan
cryoholder in the lab and avoid sending it to the company. I I hoped to
google out a recipe but I could not find one. Has anyone tried this?
With best regards,
Lubomir
