LEWATIT® ASB 1 P
Lewatit® ASB 1 P is a premium grade, gel, strong base type I anion exchange resin specially suited for high
purity separate or mixed bed applications if a reduction of the silica concentration is needed. The relatively
open matrix of the polymer enables the user to more adequately treat waters of a higher content of organic
molecules such as tannic and fulvic acids.
Lewatit® ASB 1 P is produced on the basis of a cross-linked styrene divinylbenzene polymer. It is supplied
in the form of spherical beads.
Lewatit® ASB 1 P has high an exchange capacity combined with an excellent stability to organic fouling. It
contains a minimum amount of fines (up to 50 mesh), resulting in low pressure losses.
The special properties of this product can only be fully utilized if the technolgy and process used correspond
to the current state-of-the-art and the operating conditions are adapted to the individual requirements.
