Thermax Tulsion A 2X MP SM

Summary

Product Identification

• Product Name: TULSION® A-2X MP SM
• Type: Weak base anion exchange resin
• Functional Group: Tertiary amine
• Matrix Structure: Polystyrene copolymer

Description

TULSION® A-2X MP SM is a weak base anion exchange resin with tertiary amine groups attached to a styrene divinyl benzene copolymer matrix. It features a unique physical structure offering superior kinetics and greater resistance to osmotic shock compared to gel-type weak base anion exchangers. This resin yields exceptionally high operating capacity with caustic soda regeneration and requires low rinse volumes. It also exhibits higher resistance to organic matter than gel-type anion exchangers. The product is supplied as spherical moist beads in the free base form, ready for use.
