Understand why ion exchange is critical for creating the near-ion-free ultrapure water needed in electronics manufacturing.

Electronics manufacturing requires ultrapure water with near-zero conductivity (≤0.1 μS/cm) and minimal ions. Ion exchange is essential to achieve this, combining cation resins, anion resins, and mixed beds. Cation resins remove positive ions, while anion resins eliminate negatives, and mixed beds refine water further. Pre-treatment filters out impurities that could contaminate resins. The ion exchange process operates with precise monitoring via on-line analysers, ensuring ion levels stay within limits. Regeneration keeps resins active, maintaining consistent production of ultrapure water. This technology enables the high-quality water necessary for semiconductor and electronic device production, supporting reliable manufacturing. Click here to know more.
