Polyethylenimine
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Polyethylenimine (PEI) is a versatile cationic polymer characterized by its high charge density and unique branched structure. Available in various Molecular Weight distributions, it serves as a powerful flocculant for complex industrial waste streams.
This polymer exhibits exceptional chelating properties, allowing it to bind heavy metal ions and acidic pollutants effectively. In paper manufacturing, it acts as a superior retention aid and drainage promoter, improving the mechanical strength of the final product.
Its amine-rich backbone provides numerous sites for chemical modification and surface adhesion, making it ideal for specialized coating applications. It is commercially supplied as a Liquid Solution to facilitate easy dosing in automated systems.
APPLICATIONS
- Flocculation & Coagulation: Efficiently removes negatively charged particles and suspended solids in industrial wastewater treatment.
- Paper Processing: Enhances filler retention and improves dewatering rates on paper machines to increase production speed.
- CO2 Capture: Utilized in research and gas treatment for its ability to reversibly adsorb acidic gases from air streams.
SAFETY & RISKS
Classified as Corrosive and Harmful if Swallowed. Use Chemical-Resistant Gloves, Face Shields, and Protective Coveralls during handling.
PACKAGING
200 kg Drums or 1000 kg IBC Tanks.
