Dow AmberLite IRC86 resin is a gel type high capacity weak acid cation exchange resin containing carboxylic acid groups. The principal application of this resin is dealkalization of industrial waters. 

  • Model Number: AmberLite IRC86
  • Physical Form: Clear Amber Spherical Beads
  • Ionic form as shipped: H+
  • Shipping Weight (g/L): 790
  • Total Exchange Capacity (eq/L): = 4.10 (H+ form)*
  • Uniformity Coefficient: = 1.80*
  • Harmonic Mean Size: 0.580 to 0.780 mm; < 0.300 mm – 2.0% max*
  • Moisture Holding Capacity: 47 to 53% (H+ form)*
  • Maximum Operating Temperature: 100C (H+ form)

*These properties are typical but do not constitute specifiCations.

AmberLite IRC86 resin, in the hydrogen cycle, removes hardness associated with alkalinity. When used in combination with a strong acid cation exchanger in demineralizer systems, it reduces acid regenerant consumption. Due to its high swelling, it is not recommended to use AmberLite IRC86 in applications where the resin is fully converted from H+ to Na+ form. AmberLite, a former Rohm and Haas product, is now a product of Dow.
