Nuclear-grade resin leaders
As the largest supplier of nuclear-grade ion exchange resins in North America, Xylem supports nuclear power plants in maintaining water purity, operational reliability, and regulatory compliance across critical plant systems.
In partnership with DuPont, Xylem delivers consistent, high-quality resin products with industry-leading lead times supported by deep technical expertise in nuclear water treatment applications. All resins are manufactured using controlled raw materials and validated formulations to ensure predictable performance, with no fillers, off-spec substitutions, or unintended chemistry changes.
Resin portfolio
Xylem offers the most complete portfolio of ion exchange resins for nuclear applications, supporting both Pressurized Water Reactors (PWR) and Boiling Water Reactors (BWR).
Our portfolio includes cation, anion, and mixed-bed resins, as well as borated and lithiated grades, powdered resins, and specialty adsorbents for liquid radwaste treatment and targeted radionuclide removal.
Nuclear service expertise
Beyond resin supply, Xylem provides full lifecycle support for nuclear water treatment programs. Services include custom resin blending, in-house lithiation, spent resin analysis, advanced testing, operator training, troubleshooting support, modeling tools, shelf-life management, and custom packaging solutions.
With no minimum order requirements on Xylem-branded products and technical expertise spanning the full nuclear water cycle, Xylem helps plants improve performance, reduce operational risk, and maintain long-term system stability.
Applications across the nuclear plant
Xylem ion exchange resins are used across key nuclear plant systems, including condensate polishing, reactor water cleanup, chemical and volume control systems (CVCS), fuel pool demineralization, radwaste treatment, lithium removal systems, deborating beds, stator cooling water systems, steam generator blowdown, and advanced liquid processing systems (ALPS).
