Lewatit® S 6368 Sulfate is a food grade, macroporous, monodisperse, strongly basic (type I) anion exchange resin based on a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer. Lewatit S 6368 Sulfate is, in its hydroxide form, specially applicable for:- the removal of acid and simultaneous decolorization of solutions of organic substances e.g. sugar, gelatin, glycerin, grape must, whey, fruit concentrates etc.
and in its chloride for:- the decolorization of sugar syrup (beet or cane), glycerin, grape must, fruit juices
The macroporous structure ensures very good adsorption of organic substances (e.g. colorants) and partial adsorption of organic acids and mineral acids. The substances are easy to be desorbed by regeneration with caustic soda solution (OH form) or alkalized brine solutions (Cl form) When using Lewatit S 6368 Sulfate to treat potable water and aqueous solutions listed above, special care should be given to the initial cycles of the new resin.Information provided by Lanxess. |
