ANIONISCHE IONENAUSTAUSCHHARZE ZUR SENKUNG DES CHOLESTERINSPIEGELS

摘要

Anionic ion exchange resins having cholesterol-reducing properties are characterised by an apparent density in water of 0.18 to 0.20 g of dry material/ ml and a water absorption capacity of 69 to 73% by weight. Non-toxic styrene, acrylic or epichlorohydrin resins are suitable but require different degrees of regular cross-linking within critical limits. They can be produced by polymerization at a low rate using organic peroxides as catalysts and divinyl compounds as cross-linking agents.
