Purolite®
CT151
Macroporous Strong Acid
Resin Catalyst
Purolite CT151 is a macroporous, strongly
acidic, polymeric catalyst. Its unique
properties include the high total capacity,
e.g. high number of acid sites. Purolite
CT151 has been developed to catalyze many
organic reactions. Purolite CT151 has
been successfully used in the phenol purification
process.
