Description
Macroporous, Strong Acid Cation Resin for Sweetener Applications
AmberLite FPC88 Ion Exchange Resins are macroporous, strong acid cation resins for use in deashing sweeteners to produce low-conductivity syrups, decalcifying beet sugar, purifying organic acids, or deashing/demineralizing fruit juices and other beverages. The
macroporous matrix provides excellent mechanical strength and good operating capacity.
AmberLite FPC88 Na Ion Exchange Resin is shipped in the Na+ ionic form for softening/decalcification processes, or when the most stable ionic form is desired for long-duration shipments or inventory safety stock.
