Amberlyst™ A-26(OH), ion exchange resin

Description

Amberlyst™ A-26(OH) is widely utilized to catalyze reactions such as aldol condensation and carbonylation. It is used to remove the anionic transition metal complexes from aqueous and non-aqueous mediums, acids and mercaptans from hydrocarbons and other non-polar solvents. It plays an essential role for the removal of oleic acid from chlorinated hydrocarbons and acids from phenol-acetone solutions. It is actively involved in the determination of cadmium by flow injection atomic absorption spectrometry and as packaging material for column chromatography.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
