Water softener salt CAS#7647-14-5
Softening salt, composed of high-purity sodium chloride, is used to restore the activity of the ion exchange resin in water softening equipment. (Ion exchange resin is the core component of water softening equipment and is used to absorb calcium and magnesium ions, also known as water base, from the raw water.) Therefore, it is also called an ion exchange resin regeneration agent. Softening salt is not required when the water softening equipment is operating and producing water. Only when the resin's softening capacity decreases is it backwashed with a saturated sodium chloride solution to restore resin activity, also known as resin regeneration.

Product Application of Water softener salt CAS#7647-14-5
Softening salt is widely used in water softener systems to remove calcium and magnesium ions from hard water, preventing limescale buildup in pipes, boilers, and household appliances. By regenerating the ion exchange resin inside the softener, softening salt ensures a consistent supply of soft water for daily use. In residential settings, softening salt helps protect water heaters, washing machines, and dishwashers, improving efficiency and extending service life. In commercial environments such as hotels, restaurants, hospitals, and laundries, softening salt is essential for maintaining water quality, reducing maintenance costs, and ensuring optimal performance of equipment. Industrial facilities also rely on softening salt for boiler feed water treatment, cooling systems, and process water applications, ensuring smooth operations and product quality.
