The aim of this study was to optimize the preparation of a heterogeneous cation exchange membrane in correlation of measured membrane properties. The membrane was prepared using different loadings and particle size distributions of the resin in polymer matrix. The evaluated membrane properties were ion exchange capacity, water content, real and specific resistance, permselectivity and mechanical properties.
