Akualite Resin C-107E
AKUALITE C-107E is a high capacity premium grade bead form
conventional gel polystyrene sulphonate cation exchange resin
designed for use in industrial or household water conditioning
equipment. It removes the hardnessions, e.g. calcium and
magnesium, repl
acing them with sodium ions. When the resin bed is
exhausted and hardness ions begin to break through, capacity is
restored by regeneration with common salt.
The capacity obtained depends largely on the amount of salt used in
the regeneration. AKUALITE C-
107E is also capable of removing
dissolved iron, manganese, and suspended matter by virtue of the
filtering action of the bed.
Its high bead integrity, excellent chemical and physical stability, and
very low extractibles content play a large part in its successful
employment in these areas.
