TREVER®|LYST Polymeric Catalysts: Products, values and applications
TREVER®|LYST catalysts are spherical polymers in the gel or macroreticular form and are used in heterogeneous processes. They are primarily based on functionalized styrene divinylbenzene copolymers but acrylic and phenolic backbones are also available. They offer high selectivity, high activity, and long lifetime in a variety of chemical reactions.

* MR : Macroporous
** Acid site concentration actually describes the accessibility of the reactants to the acid sites and their distribution among the bead and on the inner surface but not necessarily the performance of a catalyst
Note 1: Dry versions can be prepared upon request
Note 2 : Small bead sizes for high performance separations on request (e.g. 100 – 400 microns)
