Water softeners differ in terms of complexity and cost. A complete water softener system consists of a small bed of plastic beads or a chemical composition matrix called zeolite that contains the ...

These cations can be readily replaced by other cations in solution, giving zeolites a high ion-exchange capacity. This property is exploited in applications such as water softening, purification, and ...

Researchers have developed a new aluminosilicate zeolite, ZMQ-1, which features a unique intersecting meso-microporous ...
