Overview

Ion-exchange resin, copolymerized from acrylonitrile with divinylbenzene, ethylvinylbenzene, and 1,7-octadiene, hydrolyzed (CAS No. 130353-60-5), classified under HS subheading 3914.00.60, is a specialized polymer material used primarily in water treatment, chemical processing, and industrial purification applications. These resins facilitate the exchange of ions between a solution and the resin matrix, making them essential for processes such as deionization, softening, and removal of specific contaminants. The product is typically produced in bead form and is known for its high chemical stability and selectivity in ion exchange processes.
