Q1: What is the primary functional group and ionic form of Purolite PFC 104 E Plus?
A: Purolite PFC 104 E Plus is a strong acid cation exchange resin in the sodium (Na⁺) form, featuring sulfonic acid functional groups grafted onto a highly crosslinked polystyrene-divinylbenzene matrix.
Q2: How does PFC 104 E Plus differ from standard gel-type strong acid cation resins?
A: Unlike conventional gel-type resins, PFC 104 E Plus incorporates a macroporous structure with enhanced physical stability and superior resistance to osmotic shock, making it especially suitable for demanding cyclic operations involving frequent regeneration and high flow rates.
Q3: Is this resin suitable for food-grade or pharmaceutical water polishing applications?
A: Yes — PFC 104 E Plus is manufactured and tested in compliance with global regulatory expectations for ion exchange resins used in purified water systems, including those supporting USP <731>, EP 2.2.44, and JP standards for pharmaceutical water treatment.
Q4: What regeneration chemicals are recommended for optimal performance?
A: Sodium chloride (NaCl) brine is the standard regenerant for softening service; for full cation removal in demineralization configurations, hydrochloric acid (HCl) may be used depending on system design and operational requirements.
