Lanxes-s LEWATIT MDS 1468 Ca 220 Ion Exchange Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary functional form of LEWATIT MDS 1468 Ca 220?

A: LEWATIT MDS 1468 Ca 220 is supplied in the calcium (Ca²⁺) form, optimized for selective removal of multivalent cations such as heavy metals, iron, and manganese from aqueous process streams.


Q2: Can this resin be used in food-grade or pharmaceutical water treatment applications?

A: LEWATIT MDS 1468 Ca 220 is designed for industrial water treatment and process purification. For use in food-contact or pharmaceutical applications, validation against relevant regulatory requirements—including material compliance and extractables testing—is required prior to implementation.


Q3: How does this resin compare to standard strong acid cation resins in terms of selectivity?

A: As a macroporous, high-capacity gel-type hybrid matrix, MDS 1468 Ca 220 offers enhanced selectivity for divalent and trivalent cations over monovalent ions—especially under low-ionic-strength conditions—making it particularly effective for polishing and trace metal removal.


Q4: What regeneration protocol is recommended?

A: Regeneration is typically performed using sodium chloride (NaCl) brine solution. The optimal concentration and dosage depend on service cycle length and contaminant loading, but common practice involves 5–10% w/w NaCl at flow rates compatible with column hydraulics and resin kinetics.
