Tetrasodium EDTA
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Tetrasodium EDTA is a powerful chelating agent designed to sequester polyvalent metal ions such as calcium and magnesium in aqueous solutions. This Technical Grade white crystalline solid is essential for preventing mineral precipitation in high-hardness water environments.
The product exhibits exceptional pH stability in alkaline conditions, making it the preferred sequestering agent for heavy-duty industrial cleaners. It enhances the efficiency of surfactants by removing metal interference, ensuring a high-performance Industrial Grade cleaning result.
Commonly supplied as a 99% pure powder or a 40% aqueous solution, it is highly soluble and chemically stable under diverse temperatures. It effectively prevents scale formation and protects equipment in boiler systems and cooling water circuits.
Tetrasodium EDTA
APPLICATIONS
- Detergent Manufacturing: Acts as a builder in laundry detergents to soften water and improve soil removal efficiency.
- Scale Inhibition: Used in industrial water treatment to prevent the build-up of calcium and magnesium deposits in piping.
- Textile Processing: Removes metal traces during the dyeing and bleaching process to ensure color uniformity and prevent spotting.
SAFETY & RISKS
Classified as an Irritant. Causes serious eye irritation; wear Nitrile Gloves and Chemical Splash Goggles. Hazard Class: 8 (Corrosive to metals in some concentrations).
