Lanxes-s LEWATIT PH 1061 Ion Exchange Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary functional group and ion exchange mechanism of LEWATIT PH 1061?

A: LEWATIT PH 1061 is a strongly acidic cation exchange resin based on a styrene-divinylbenzene matrix with sulfonic acid functional groups. It operates via reversible proton (H⁺) exchange, effectively removing multivalent cations such as Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Fe³⁺, and heavy metal ions from aqueous streams.


Q2: Is LEWATIT PH 1061 suitable for use in food-grade or pharmaceutical water purification systems?

A: Yes — LEWATIT PH 1061 is manufactured and tested to meet requirements for use in water treatment applications where compliance with relevant food-contact and pharmaceutical water quality standards is required. Users must validate final system performance and confirm suitability under their specific regulatory and operational conditions.


Q3: How does LEWATIT PH 1061 compare to standard gel-type cation resins in terms of physical stability and regeneration efficiency?

A: As a macroporous resin, LEWATIT PH 1061 offers enhanced mechanical and osmotic stability compared to conventional gel-type resins, particularly under frequent cycling or in solutions containing suspended solids or organic foulants. Its structure also supports efficient regeneration with mineral acids across a broad pH range, maintaining consistent capacity over extended service life.


Q4: Can LEWATIT PH 1061 be used for selective removal of transition metals from industrial process streams?

A: Yes — its high affinity for polyvalent cations, combined with macroporous accessibility, makes it effective for selective removal of transition metals (e.g., Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Zn²⁺) from complex effluents, including those with moderate organic content or variable ionic strength. Performance depends on feed composition, pH, and competing ions.
