Used extensively in water softening and demineralization processes, this resin removes hardness ions like calcium and magnesium from water by exchanging them with hydrogen ions. Commonly applied in industrial boilers, cooling towers, and process water systems to prevent scale formation and corrosion. Also utilized in food and beverage production for dealkalization and purification of process water. Plays a role in chemical processing for acid recovery and metal ion removal. Suitable for both continuous and batch-type ion exchange systems due to its high capacity and mechanical stability.
