Description
Thermo's Dowex 50WX8 is a high-performance hydrogen form strongly acidic cation exchange resin, ideal for a variety of separation techniques such as ion exchange chromatography and low-pressure liquid chromatography (LPLC). Manufactured in the United States, this resin is supplied in a bead form with a mesh size of 200-400, providing superior resolution for water deionization, biochemical separations, and sample purification. Featuring an 8% cross-linked styrene-divinylbenzene gel matrix, it ensures mechanical and chemical stability. Dowex 50WX8 is recognized for its sulfonic acid groups, which facilitate efficient proton exchange. This resin holds an impressive ion exchange capacity of 1.1 meq/mL (wet bed volume) with a moisture content of 50-58%. This unused, untouched product offers a reliable and reproducible column packing experience featuring uniform, free-flowing white to off-white beads. It is stored in ambient, dry conditions to maintain its quality.
