PDF datasheet mirror for Thermax Tulsion A-23 UPS (Thermax). Verify with OEM before design.
Summary
Product Identification
- Product Name: TULSION® A-23 UPS
- Type: TOUGH GEL STRONG BASE ANION EXCHANGE RESIN TYPE I
- Description: Strong base anion exchange resin based on a polystyrene matrix, containing a quaternary ammonium Type I group. Offers excellent chemical, operating, and physical properties. Suitable for weak acids (silicic, carbonic) and strong mineral acids when used with TULSION® T-42 UPS strong acid cation resin. Performs well across a wide pH and temperature range. Supplied as moist spherical beads in chloride form with particle size distribution for good kinetics and minimal pressure drop. Exhibits enhanced resistance to organic matter.
