On the Electrochemistry of Ion-Exchange Resins

Abstract

Electrochemical properties of ion‐exchange resins such as specific conductances, ionic mobilities in the resins, and potentials across resinous membranes have been measured recently. A review of these measurements and their correlation to the general thermodynamic treatment of ion‐exchange resins is presented. Applications such as the use of resinous membranes as ionic sieves, electrolytic regeneration of ion‐exchange resins, and the use of ion‐exchange resins as media for electrophoretic separations are discussed.
