Ion exchange resins are insoluble polymers and are prepared by cross-linking polystyrenes that contain various functional groups. It acts as a medium for ion exchange reactions, consisting of a polymer matrix to which ion exchange sites are attached. Charged functional groups participate in these sites, attracting and facilitating ion-exchange with other ions carrying a different charge. Ion-exchange resins are usually used in the form of white or yellow porous microbead, membrane, or granular material, though other forms such as sheets are also used. Ion-exchange resins are of two major types, namely cation exchange resins, which attract positive ions, and anion exchange resins, which attract negative ions. Ion exchange resins find applications in various end use industries like power, chemical & petrochemical, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, electrical & electronics, metal & mining, among other industrial operations aimed at system efficiency, reduction of energy consumption, and extension of equipment life.
