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