General description
AmberSep® OPTIPORE L-493 is a polymeric adsorbent developed for the concentration of organic compounds from air and water. It is a highly cross-linked styrenic polymer that is insoluble in strong acids, strong bases, and organic solvents. It has a unique pore size distribution and high surface area. It is a wet material intended for liquid applications and can be easily dried in a flowing stream of ambient temperature air. The adsorbent possesses a hydrophobic surface and has non-catalytic nature.
Application
AmberSep® OPTIPORE L-493 Polymeric Adsorbent may be used in the:
- Solid phase extraction of copper, lead, and iron from water and food samples
- Kinetics study to examine the adsorption of acrylonitrile using zero-length columns
- Extraction of desired complex in the evaluation of common laboratory methods for measuring cadmium content using ELECTRE technique
- Comparative study to examine the adsorption behaviors of common polymeric adsorbents in the separation of phenol and BPA
- Study to compare the adsorptive ability of resins in recovering alcohols
- Determination of chromium in contaminated water samples from industries using FI-FAAS
- Separation of acetic acid from volatile fatty acids (VFAs) mixture
Polyaromatic adsorbent for the concentration of organics from water; considered a better option than carbon.
- Hydrophobic adsorbent with non-catalytic activity
- High capacity for organic compounds
- Macroporous beads with good mechanical strength
