A510, Type 2 Macroporous Strong Base Resin, Chloride Form

Purolite® A510, Type 2 Macroporous Strong Base Rsin, Chloride Form is a macroporous type 2 strong base anion exchange resin. Its macroporous structure offers excellent resistance to osmotic and physical shock. A510 has a high operating capacity, especially on high-FMA feedwaters, as well as a high reversible sorptive capacity for complex organic materials, such as the fulvic and humic acids which occur in many surface water supplies. In a conventional two-stage deionizing plant, its silica-removal properties are comparable with those of any premium type 2 strong base anion resin; however, as with other resins of this type, a polishing mixed-bed is necessary to ensure the lowest levels of residual silica. A510 in the chloride form has a unique ability to remove organic color bodies from polluted waters, pharmaceutical and chemical streams. For these applications warm caustic soda or salt should be used (35-50°C).
