DOWEX Polymeric Adsorbent Resins

DOWEX™ OPTIPORE™ Polymeric Adsorbent Resins are engineered polymers that offer an alternative to activated carbon manufactured with macropores and mesopores to compliment the micropores where adsorption occurs. The unique pore structure of the resins makes DOWEX OPTIPORE resins significantly easier to regenerate on site resulting in smaller systems and lower costs. Made from clean plastic monomers, DOWEX resins have high surface area and are free of salts, metals, and minerals that can leach back into product streams or catalyze undesirable reactions.
