1/4 ft³ | 1/2 ft³ | 3/4 ft³ | 1 ft³

MB 11

MB 11 is a mixed-bed ion exchange resin that has a mixture of highly purified and super regenerated strong acid cation and strong base anion resins in 1:1 volume ratio. MB 11 is recommended for any mixed-bed application where reliable production of the highest quality water is required and where “as supplied” resin must have an absolute minimum of ionic and nonionic contamination.
