AMBERLITE™ IRA410 Cl Resin
Industrial Grade Strong Base Anion Exchanger
Description
AMBERLITE IRA410 Cl resin is a type 2 strongly basic anion exchange resin, with a clear gel structure. It is based on crosslinked polystyrene and has a high bead integrity, good regeneration efficiency and excellent rinse performance. It is particularly suited for use in two-column water demineralisation plants (one cation, one anion unit). AMBERLITE IRA410 Cl resin has better regeneration efficiency than type 1 resins, resulting in a higher operating capacity. However, its affinity for silica is lower. Therefore, AMBERLITE IRA410 Cl resin will be mainly used to treat waters with a silica to total anion ratio of less than 30%. It should be regenerated at ambient temperature.

Hydraulic Characteristics
Figure 1 shows the bed expansion of AMBERLITE™ IRA410 Cl resin as a function of backwash flow rate and water temperature. Figure 2 shows the pressure drop data for AMBERLITE IRA410 Cl resin, as a function of service flow rate and water temperature.Pressure drop data are valid at the start of the service run with clear water and a correctly classified bed.
