Submicroscopic particles of anion exchange resin comprise approximately spherical beads of crosslinked copolymer having diameters of 0.01 to 1.5 micrometers and bear 0.7 to 1.5 anion exchange functional groups per monomer unit (see fig. 1). The particles may be used in the removal of ionic impurities from liquids and may subsequently be separated from the treated liquids by flocculation. The particles may be made by emulsion polymerization followed by coagulation of the emulsion polymer beads, separation of the resulting coagulum particles from the ' emulsion polymerization medium and functionalization of the beads. which in some cases will remain as coagulum particles and in other cases will redisperse during functionalization. Also of interest are chloromethylated intermediates for the functionalized resin.
阴离子交换
树脂的亚微粒由交联共聚物的近似球形珠子组成,其直径为 0.01 至 1.5 微米,每个单体单元含有 0.7 至 1.5 个阴离子交换官能团(见图 1)。这种微粒可用于去除液体中的离子杂质,随后可通过絮凝作用从处理过的液体中分离出来。这些颗粒可以通过乳液聚合制成,然后对乳液聚合珠进行凝结,将凝结的颗粒从乳液聚合介质中分离出来,并对珠子进行功能化处理。在某些情况下,这些颗粒会保持凝结状态,而在其他情况下,则会在功能化过程中重新分散。此外,功能化
