High-capacity and Economical Cation Exchange Water Softening Resin
INDION 225 NaF is a strongly acidic cation exchange resin containing sulphonic acid groups. It is specially designed for the treatment of foodstuffs, beverages, potable water and water used in the processing of food. Its specification is in compliance with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Code of Federal Regulations section 21, paragraph 173.25, for use in the treatment of foods for human consumption. The resin is extremely robust and has excellent physical and chemical characteristics. It is supplied in moist condition in sodium form. It is regenerated with sodium chloride (traditional water softening salt) or potassium chloride. The capacity obtained through regeneration depends largely on the salt dose applied. Typically 12-15 lbs of salt per cubic foot is used to obtain maximum capacity of up to 33,000 grains per cubic foot. A salt dose of 6 lbs per CF would yield a capacity of about 22,000 grains.
