001×7FC Styrene series Gel Strong Acid Cation Exchange Resin
About this Product:
The 001x7FC is a premium-grade, bead-form, conventional gel polystyrene sulfonate cation exchange resin engineered for exceptional performance in industrial and household water conditioning applications.
Featuring an acidity comparable to strong inorganic acids like sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and hydrochloric acid (HCl), this resin delivers reliable ion exchange capabilities across diverse pH environments, including alkaline, neutral, and acidic mediums. Its core strengths lie in its high exchange capacity, ensuring efficient ion removal, coupled with speedy exchange ability for rapid processing and superior physical strength for long-term durability.
Application
The 001x7FC resin is primarily utilized in critical water treatment applications, including:
- Hard water softening: Efficiently removes hardness-causing ions from water.
- Pure water manufacturing: Contributes to the production of high-purity water for various industrial and specialized needs.
- Floating bed water softening systems: Specifically designed and highly effective for use in advanced floating bed (or fluidized bed) water softening processes.
