LEWATIT® K 6362

Lewatit® K 6362 is a strongly basic (type I), gel-type resin based on a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer with a very narrow bead size distribution (monodisperse grade). Compared to conventional heterodisperse resins it offers better kinetics along with improved mechanical and osmotic stabilities.

In its delivered chloride form, Lewatit® K 6362 can be used in the following applications:

• Recovery of precious metal cyano and chloro complexes from waste water or process streams
• Removal of anionic heavy metal complexes from hydrochloric acid
• Recovery of uranium from both carbonate and sulfuric acid leach solutions

In its OH form Lewatit® K 6362 is particularly suitable for:

• The removal of mercaptane sulfur from hydrocarbon streams
• Catalysis of organic reactions of small polar molecules in the temperature range from 30 to 60 °C
