Abstract
Ion exchange resins exhibiting increased crush strength and/or higher density are prepared from a cross-linked polymer by imbibing a halo-substituted olefin within the cross-linked polymer's structure and subsequently polymerizing the imbibed olefin. For example, imbibing vinylidene chloride within a chloromethylated, cross-linked copolymer of styrene and subsequently polymerizing the vinylidene chloride forms a high density resin, which resin is useful in the preparation of ion exchange and chelate type resins having improved crush strength.
