Thermax Tulsion T-42 H SM

Summary

Product Identification

• Product Name: T-42 H SM
• Product Type: STRONG ACID CATION EXCHANGE RESIN – HYDROGEN FORM
• Brand: Tulsion®
• Manufacturer: Thermax Limited

Description

Tulsion® T-42 H SM is a premium quality strong acid cation exchange resin containing nuclear sulphonic acid groups. It offers high exchange capacity, excellent physical and chemical stability, and good operating characteristics. It is suitable for a wide range of pH and temperature conditions.

This resin is supplied in hydrogen form for two-stage and mixed-bed demineralization, and in sodium form for softening. It is also used for de-alkalization and chemical processing.
