DEIONIZED WATER

DEIONIZED WATER

Deionized water, also known as DI water, is water that has had most of its mineral ions removed, such as sodium, calcium, iron, copper, chloride, and sulfate. This is done through a process called ion exchange, which replaces unwanted ions with hydrogen and hydroxide ions, forming pure H₂O. Deionized water is commonly used in laboratories, pharmaceutical industries, electronics manufacturing, and medical applications, where high purity water is required. Unlike regular tap water, deionized water doesn't conduct electricity well and doesn't leave behind mineral residues.
