MTS9570, Mixed Acid Cation Resin

Purolite® MTS9570 Mixed Acid Cation Resin is a specially developed Monophos™ chelating resin, which incorporates phosphonic, and sulfonic functional groups on a mechanically and osmotically resistant matrix. These combined properties give it high selectivity for iron and other transitional metals, even in acidic solutions. MTS9570 has been especially designed for the selective removal of ferric iron from acidic solutions, such as copper electrolyte or from nickel, cobalt and zinc processing solutions. MTS9570 can also be used in potable water applications for the selective removal of trace levels of selected metals from neutral pH waters. Its selectivity for uranium and other lanthanide elements should give good opportunities for its successful employment in other areas.
