What is High Capacity Softening Resin?
Resin is a bead-like plastic or synthetic resin material having ion exchange properties. It is produced from styrene and divinylbenzene and contains sulfonic acid groups. When regenerated with sodium chloride (common salt), it will soften water by exchanging sodium ions for calcium and magnesium ions (hardness). This product, also known as Nalcite HCR**, is widely used as the chemical softening agent in domestic, industrial and municipal water softening equipment.
