The kinetic parameters of dehydration were determined under non-isothermal
conditions for different polystyrenedivinylbenzene sulfonic acid type catio
nites (DVB) and their dependence on the degree of cross-linking granulation
, porosity, specific surface, content of SO3M groups (M=Li, Na, K, Rb), nat
ure of the alkali metal in partially neutralized -SO3H groups and heating r
ate was investigated.
