nuclear grade resin is available

look on gapswater

about 300 I think for a 50kg bag.

any idea how long it lasts ?

[alanwilson]

doesn't last that long

about the same as normal resin I think

not worth buying for us I'm afraid but I was asked

do you know that for a fact Alan ? or did they (the supplier) tell you this ?

When I worked in Engineering the techs used nuclear resin and since starting wc'ing I contacted the techs I knew and asked them.

Fair comment you poser

alan is right, heres the stuff, wonder if this is better than what we use, or would it clean better, surley it must do, as it is almost double the price,
Nuclear grade mixed bed DI resin cartridges are used in the production of ultra-pure water, ensuring that the water treated is of the highest purity possible.

That is Purolite brand which is the same spec as Tulsion MB-115 which is a nuclear grade resin

if its the same quality why is it so cheap compared to the others?

It's the most expensive to buy direct from the manufacturer but my overheads are less than other suppliers so hence the savings get passed onto the customer.

I wouldn't have thought that going to better than 0 ppm would have made that much difference. It certainly wouldn't affect the pH.

It's a generally understood rule that 10 deg C increase in temperature makes chemical reactions go twice as fast. Presumably that goes for dissolving as well.

Using warm/hot water may well speed up the cleaning process that we use to clean glass. It won't make any appreciable difference to the drying time since it will very quickly cool down to ambient.

Ultra pure water 000 ppb or ppt can only be stored in glass containers it has a tendency to disolve every thing else. So first thing you'll notice is you storage tank has disappeared then your baffeled tank then your hoses then your brush, after that you'll run out of customers as their window frames would be vanishing.

I think that it might be safer to store it in containers made from depleted uranium. This stuff is quite safe to have around.

I remember a couple of years ago that our beloved government issued two statements in the same week.

One was saying that depleted uranium was harmless and safe to release into the (Croatian) environment. Another one warned against taking vitamin tablets.
