  2. Introduction to Ion Exchange • Structure and activity of resins • Matrix • Functional group • Cross-linking • Classification • Ion exchange resin properties • Capacity • Particle size • Moisture • Ion exchange reactions • Selectivity • Column operation • Mode of regeneration

  3. Structure • Structure of Ion Exchange Resins • An ion exchanger consists of the polymer matrix and the functional groups that interact with the ions • Polymer matrix: • Polystyrene (85% of all resins) • Polyacrylate (10%) • Phenol-formaldehyde • Functional groups: • Cation-exchange • Anion-exchange • Chelating groups

  4. Polystyrene H C H H C C H H C C C C H H C H Simplified representation of styrene Styrene monomer Linear polystyrene

  5. Cross-Linking DVB links linear chains of polystyrene to obtain 3-dimensional stability Styrene Divinylbenzene (DVB) Cross-linked polystyrene

  6. Gel structure • Cross_linking is evenly distributed in the matrix • Pseudo-crystalline structure • Pores = mesh of the matrix • Natural porosity • Even pore size (a few Å) • Gel resin is transparent

  7. Macroporosity • Artificial porosity is created with a porogen or phase extender • The porogen doesn't participate in the polymerisation • It just takes room in the system • It is washed away once the polymerisation is complete • It leaves voids in the structure = macropores • Macroporous resins are opaque

  35. Selectivity cont. Carboxylic (WAC) resins H >> Ca > Mg >> Na Note 1 : At pH < 5, WAC resins are in the -COOH form, very little dissociated. They can be used only in neutral or alkaline solutions. Note 2 : Ba and Sr are not well removed by a WAC resin Weakly Basic resins (amines, usually tertiary) They remove only Strong Acids from solution, e.g. HCl, H2SO4. They can operate only in acidic solutions. Note on Acrylic WBA resins They remove also carbonic acid (CO2), to a great extent. IRC86 IRA96 IRA67
