AMBERLITE™ Ion Exchange Resins
Chelating Resins - Sorted in alpha-numerical order
AMBERLITE polymer based chelating resins involve mostly the use of functionalized styrene divinylbenzene copolymers with different surface properties and porosities. These resins are generally supplied as macroreticular spherical beads. Amberlite selective resins are widely used for metal removal and recovery in mining and chemicals, ground water remediation, waste water treatment, and brine softening.
They have shown superior performance in many different applications. During
the development of these selective resins the major focus was on high selectivity,
very low leakage, highest operating capacity, excellent regenerability and
lifetime.
