2.The degree of crosslinking : 7%.
3. Ionic form: Na+
4.Volume complete exchange capacity(mmol/ml): ≥1.90
Applications of Food-Grade Ion Exchange Resins:
Sugar Refining: Used to decolorize and purify sugar syrups by removing color bodies, salts, and other impurities.
Water Softening: Removes calcium, magnesium, and other hardness-causing ions from water used in food processing, ensuring the water is suitable for production.
Juice and Beverage Clarification: Helps in the removal of bitter compounds, colorants, and other unwanted ions from fruit juices, wine, beer, and other beverages, improving taste and clarity.
Protein Purification: Used in processes like whey protein isolation and amino acid purification to separate proteins and other components based on their charge.
Catalysis in Food Processing: Some food-grade ion exchange resins are used as catalysts in the production of food ingredients, such as the isomerization of glucose to fructose in high-fructose corn syrup production.
