Deionised water is a form of water that has had its mineral ions removed, resulting in water with extremely low electrical conductivity and a high purity level. This makes it suitable for a wide range of electric-based applications where the presence of any impurities could be detrimental.
The key properties and benefits of ionised water include:
-
High Purity: Deionised water has an extremely low concentration of dissolved ions.
-
Low Electrical Conductivity: The absence of these dissolved ions significantly reduces the water's ability to conduct electricity. This key characteristic makes it suitable for many electronic and laboratory applications.
-
Neutral pH: While deionisation removes ions, pure water has a neutral pH of 7.0.
-
Prevents Mineral Buildup: The lack of dissolved minerals prevents scaling and deposits in equipment and appliances.
-
Reduces Corrosion: The lack of reactive ions minimises the risk of corrosion in sensitive materials.
-
Purity in Processes: Provides a clean and consistent means for various industrial, scientific, and pharmaceutical processes.
-
Improves Performance and Longevity: Deionised water can help extend the life and enhance equipment performance by preventing impurities and buildup.
Thanks to its high purity, deionised water is used across a range of applications, including:
-
Laboratories: Used for preparing chemical solutions, rinsing glassware, and using analytical instruments where impurities could interfere with results.
-
Electronics Industry: Deionised water is essential for cleaning electronic components, manufacturing semiconductors, and for use in cooling systems, where mineral deposits could cause damage.
-
Pharmaceutical Industry: Used in the production of injectable medications and cleaning equipment, and as a component in pharmaceutical formulations.
-
Cosmetics Industry: Found in many cosmetic products as a solvent and to prevent the risk of impurities.
-
Automotive Industry: Used in car batteries and cooling systems to prevent corrosion and mineral buildup.
-
Aquariums: Used to create a specific water chemistry for sensitive aquatic life.
