Ion exchange resin is a cross linked and a porous polymer made out of polystyrene or polyacrylic compounds containing functional groups with mobile ions which can be exchanged with the ions of the same charge when dissolved in a liquid media. Anion exchange resins in particular have negatively charged mobile ions for such exchange processes. The W...

Even though more than 70% of our planet's surface is covered with water, water scarcity, i.e., lack of access to clean drinking water, is widespread and remains on the rise: it is found in both growing and developed economies. Further, driven by declining freshwater resources and increasing water demand around the world, water utilities have begun ...

Biodegradable polymers are increasingly adopted in many applications and industries to replace crude-derived polymers. Currently, the application of biodegradable polymers as binders, sealants, and adhesives is gaining traction, with pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA) being a hot area of interest. Healthcare, FMCG, and packaging are the top areas o...
