Summary
Product identification
- Product Name: MBD-15-SC
- Product Type: MIXED BED
- Grade: SEMICONDUCTOR GRADE MIXED BED
- Description: HIGH PURITY & HIGH CAPACITY POLYSTYRENIC GEL, H / OH FORM
ResinTech MBD-15-SC is a mixture of a dark-colored hydrogen form cation resin and a hydroxide form type 1 strong base anion resin. The resin ratio is 1:1 on an equivalent basis. The SC grade signifies functional testing to produce > 18 megohm resistivity and under 50 ppb of TOC. MBD-15-SC is designed for all mixed bed deionization applications requiring high resistivity and high throughput capacity.
