Q1: What is the primary functional form of LEWATIT MDS 1368 Ca 350?
A: LEWATIT MDS 1368 Ca 350 is supplied in the calcium (Ca²⁺) form, optimized for selective removal of multivalent cations such as heavy metals, iron, and manganese from aqueous streams in industrial water treatment and process purification applications.
Q2: Is this resin suitable for food-grade or pharmaceutical water polishing?
A: While LEWATIT MDS 1368 Ca 350 is designed for high-purity water applications and complies with general regulatory requirements for ion exchange resins used in water treatment, formal food-contact or pharmaceutical-grade certification must be verified per batch documentation and local regulatory authority guidelines.
Q3: How does the macroporous structure benefit performance in challenging feed waters?
A: Its macroporous matrix provides enhanced mechanical stability and resistance to fouling, allowing effective operation in waters with moderate organic content, suspended solids, or variable pH—without significant loss of capacity or pressure drop under typical service conditions.
Q4: Can this resin be regenerated, and what are common regeneration agents?
A: Yes, LEWATIT MDS 1368 Ca 350 is fully regenerable using standard acidic solutions such as hydrochloric acid (HCl) or sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), enabling repeated use in fixed-bed or moving-bed ion exchange systems with consistent performance recovery.
