PDF datasheet mirror for Amberlite MB150 (Rohm & Haas). Verify with OEM before design.
Summary
Product identification
Product Name: AMBERLITE® MB150 Type: Regenerable Mixed Bed Resin Description: An ionically equilibrated mixed bed resin, ready for use as supplied. It is a mixture of a strongly acidic cation resin and a strongly basic, type 1 anion exchange resin. Used for the production of high purity water and other applications requiring totally demineralized water.

- Ionic Form, as shipped: Hydrogen/Hydroxide
- Cation to Anion equivalent ratio: 1/1
- Volumetric Composition: 40% Cation/60% Anion
- Volumetric Capacity: 12 kgr/ft³ (approximate)
- Shipping Weight: 43 lb/ft³
- Particle Size:
- Uniformity Coefficient: 1.7 maximum
- Screen Grading: 16 to 50 mesh (US Std Screen)
- Screen Analysis: 5% maximum on 16 mesh; 0.5% (approx.) through 50 mesh (US Standard Screen)
- Chemical Stability: Insoluble in water, dilute solutions of acids or bases, and common solvents
Suggested Operating Conditions
- pH Range: 0 to 14
- Maximum Operating Temperature: 140 °F
- Minimum Bed Depth: 24 inches
- Service Flow Rate: 2 to 5 gpm/ft³
- Regenerant:
- Cation: HCl or H₂SO₄
- Anion: NaOH
Operating Capacity
AMBERLITE MB150 will exhibit a nominal operating capacity of 12 kgr/ft³ with 80% of the capacity producing water quality above 10 megohm.
Regeneration
If required, AMBERLITE MB150 can be regenerated after exhaustion. The resin mixture must be separated into its component parts by backwashing. The cation component is regenerated with acid of the proper concentration, and the anion component is regenerated with sodium hydroxide of the proper concentration.
Recommended Applications
AMBERLITE MB150 resin is suitable for many industrial water treatment applications and is an excellent choice for portable exchange deionization. It provides high capacity with reliable production of the highest quality water and rapid rinse.
