Cation resins remove positively charged ions such as calcium and magnesium, while anion resins remove negatively charged ions like chloride and sulphate. Mixed bed resin combines both resin types to produce higher-purity water and is commonly used as a polishing stage in deionisation systems. The best choice depends on your treatment process and water quality requirements. Understanding the chemistry of your application can help improve efficiency and extend system performance. Suppliers like Pure Resin Products provide a range of resin types for different industrial and commercial commercial needs.
