Protection of Ion Exchange Resins during Storage

Ion exchange resins, supplied in dry or moist condition, require proper care at all times. Always keep the resins drums / bags closed and in shade
at a temprature between 10°C and 40°C.
Moist Resins: Resins which are supplied in moist condition should not be allowed to dry. Regularly open the drums / bags and check the condition
of the resins. If the resin is not moist enough, add demineralised water to keep it in completely moist condition.
Dry Resins: Resins which are supplied as dry beads or dry powders should not be allowed to come in contact with moisture.

Measurement
Moist Resins: All water treatment resins and resins supplied in moist condition are generally sold on volume basis. The volume is measured in a
column after backwashing, settling and draining of water to the bed surface.
Dry Resins: All dry resins are sold on weight basis.

Warning
Strong oxidising agents such as nitric acid, degrade ion exchange resins to a considerable extent. This may result in an explosive reaction.
Thus, before using strong oxidising agents, consult sources knowledgeable in handling of such material.

Our manufacturing units are ISO 9001 & 14001 certified. Our Patancheru unit is also OHSAS 18001 certified.
