What is IX?
-Definition of ion exchange
Ion exchange is the reversible exchange of ions between a solid and
a liquid in which there is no substantial change in the structure of the
solid.

Thermal Stability
CATIONS:
Can operate up to 150C (300F) in the Na form.
Degrade through loss of sulfonate functional group at >120C in the H
form.
Cation resin stability dependent on pH: cleavage of carbon-sulfur bond
increases at lower pH: up to 120 C in the H form.
ANIONS:
Degrade through conversion of strong base groups into weak base
groups.
Type 2 also lose ethanol group and form weak base groups (max 35C)
Can operate up to 60C (140F) recommended for OH cycle (Type 1).
Anion resin stability dependent on pH: cleavage of carbon-nitrogen bond
increases at higher pH.
