Amberlite HPR1100 H

Summary

Product identification

• Product Name: DuPont™ AmberLite™ HPR1100 H Ion Exchange Resin
• Type: Uniform Particle Size, Gel, Strong Acid Cation Exchange Resin
• Intended Use: Industrial Demineralization Applications
• Previous Name: DOWEX MARATHON™ C H Ion Exchange Resin

Description

AmberLite™ HPR1100 H is a high-quality, light-colored, strong acid cation resin designed for industrial demineralization. Its properties are optimized for high performance, cost-effective operation, excellent operating capacity, and reduced regenerant and rinse water usage. It is compatible with all system technologies and can be used in the lead cation bed for demineralization. For mixed bed polishing, AmberLite™ HPR1200 H or AmberLite™ HPR1210 H are recommended. AmberLite™ HPR1100 Na is available for softening or demineralization applications requiring a sodium form.
