Summary
Product identification
AMBERJET™ 1000 Na is an industrial-grade strong acid cation exchanger. It is a uniform particle size, high-quality, strong acid cation exchanger designed for use in water treatment applications, including softening and demineralisation. It is a styrene divinylbenzene copolymer with sulfonic acid functional groups in the Na⁺ ionic form as shipped.

* 1 BV (Bed Volume) = 1 m³ solution per m³ resin.
Hydraulic characteristics
Bed expansion as a function of backwash flow rate and water temperature is shown in Figure 1. Pressure drop data as a function of service flow rate and water temperature are shown in Figure 2. Pressure drop data are valid at the start of the service run with clear water and a correctly classified bed.
Limits of use
AMBERJET 1000 Na resin is suitable for industrial uses. For specific applications such as pharmaceutical, food processing, or potable water, consult Rohm and Haas for resin choice and operating conditions.
