Purolite® A400, Type 1 Porous Strong Base Anion Resin, Chorlide Form is a clear gel Type 1 strong-base anion exchanger with both high operating capacity and the ability to achieve low residual silica levels. Minimal quantities of caustic soda are required compared with those typical of the classical Type 1 (A600) quaternary ammonium structure based on polystyrene. It has a clear gel structure, showing excellent regeneration efficiency and rinse characteristics. A400 functions well both in mixed bed and layered bed demineralizer systems, where specially tailored particle size ranges result in achieving or maintaining good separations. A400 has exceptional physical stability for a conventional gel-type resin which permits a long life without the development of excessive pressure drop; it also shows good kinetics of exchange, enabling very low concentration levels of both strong and weak acid anions to be achieved at practical flowrates.
