Description

Product Information

The Acros Organics Dowex 50WX8 ion-exchange resin is an essential chemical agent designed for use in various scientific applications. It features a model-specific particle size range of 100-200 mesh, making it an effective medium for ion-exchange processes. Presented as moist beads or spheres, this resin exhibits a water retention capacity of 50 to 58 percent and is available in an aesthetically pleasing beige to brown color. Supplied in a 2.5 kg quantity, it offers a total wet volume capacity of 1.7 meq/mL. This product was manufactured in the United States and is packaged in a robust plastic bottle to ensure it remains in optimal condition during storage and use. Perfect for laboratory experiments, it is particularly valuable in applications requiring separation of ions and purification processes. It is sold unused, meaning it has no prior deployment history, though it may exhibit minor cosmetic blemishes.
