Lactic acid purification with Sunresin’s uniform particle size resins

As the world goes green day by day, Sunresin is doing its job in every aspect to enable and empower this initiative. From energy transition to environment protection, from greenhouse gas mitigation to biodegradation, Sunresin’s separation and purification technologies play an important role.

Biodegradable materials are substances that decompose easily through the actions of bacteria, fungi, and other living organisms. They are usually found in day-to-day usage such as corn, patato, tree leaves, etc.

Today, hundreds of billions of biodegradable bags are being used every year globally. More and more biodegradable tablewares (cups, trays, plates) are used on our table, made of polylactic acid (PLA), which comes from the fermentation, purification and polymerization of corn, potato and other renewable resources. Degradable bags and tablewares made of polylactic acid (PLA) do not contain bisphenol A. Furthermore, they can complete the surface carbon cycle in 6-12 months to achieve biodegradation. All these features make them a healthy, safe and eco-friendly option.

In the purification process, Sunresin’s uniform-particle-size ion exchange resin, specifically developed for lactic acids, removes impurities, ashes and proteins from the lactic acid fermentation broth, in order to provide high-quality raw materials for the synthesis of polylactic acid.

Sunresin’s Ion Exchange Resins for lactic acid purification feature the following advantages and characteristics:

1. Good physical and chemical properties;

2. High exchange capacity and strength;

3. Good separation and kinetic performance, with high efficiency;

4. Uniform particle size resins produced with the world leading jetting technology.

As the largest manufacturer of adsorption and separation materials in China, Sunresin keeps innovating and is fully committed to using its innovative technologies to enable sustainable development across different industries around the world.

Sunresin, driving the innovation.
