    Abstract: An anion exchange membrane is made by mixing 2 trifluoroMethyl Ketone [nominal] (1.12 g, 4.53 mmol), 1 BiPhenyl (0.70 g, 4.53 mmol), methylene chloride (3.0 mL), trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (TFSA) (3.0 mL) to produce a pre-polymer. The pre-polymer is then functionalized to produce an anion exchange polymer. The pre-polymer may be functionalized with trimethylamine in solution with water. The pre-polymer may be imbibed into a porous scaffold material, such as expanded polytetrafluoroethylene to produce a composite anion exchange membrane.

    Abstract: Provided is a method of removing sodium from a collection of sodium-laden resin beads comprising the steps of (a) providing the collection of sodium-laden resin beads, wherein the resin beads comprise one or more vinyl polymers having quaternary ammonium groups; wherein cation exchange resin, if present in the collection of resin beads, are present in an amount of 0 to 0.5% by weight based on the weight of the collection of resin beads; wherein 90 mole % or more of the quaternary ammonium groups are each associated with a hydroxide anion; wherein sodium is present in an amount of more than 100 ppb by weight, based on the weight of the collection of sodium-laden resin beads, and (b) bringing the collection of sodium-laden resin beads into contact with aqueous ammonium hydroxide to form a mixture (b).

    Abstract: Methods of stabilizing virgin ion exchange resin material are provided. The methods include rinsing virgin ion exchange resin material with deoxygenated water, introducing the rinsed virgin ion exchange resin material into a liquid impermeable compartment of a gas impermeable vessel and hermetically sealing the vessel. The methods include rinsing virgin ion exchange resin material with deoxygenated water, introducing the rinsed virgin ion exchange resin material into a gas impermeable vessel, introducing an oxygen scavenging material into the gas impermeable vessel, and hermetically sealing the vessel. A method of facilitating water treatment in a site in need thereof by providing rinsed virgin ion exchange resin material in deoxygenated water positioned in a liquid impermeable compartment of a gas impermeable vessel is also provided. A vessel containing deoxygenated water and virgin ion exchange resin material and an oxygen scavenging material is also provided.
