Abstract
A method for forming agglomerated ion exchange particles in which finely divided synthetic resin coating particles are affixed to the surface of synthetic resin substrate particles. The surface of the coating particles have ion exchange sites with monovalent counterions (e.g., negatively charged) which are attracted to the ion exchange sites on the substrate particles. Multivalent ions (e.g., carbonate) of the same charge as such monovalent counterions are mixed into an aqueous disperson of the coating particles to displace the monovalent counterions thereby increasing the electrostatic charge density of the coating particles. Then, a slurry of the synthetic resin substrate particles is added dropwise to this dispersion which is mixed to form agglomerates by electrostatic attraction.
