Phosphonates

HEDP Anti-Scalant/Dispersant

HEDP is a 60% active aqueous solution of Hydroxyethylidene-diphosphonic acid (HEDP). It provides control of calcium and other metal salts including iron and manganese by acting as a strong crystal modifying agent and threshold inhibitor. HEDP is known to be a sequestrant and excellent deposit control agent.

HEDP Applications

  • Cooling Water Treatment
  • Swimming pools
  • Reverse osmosis formulation
  • Industrial Cleaners
  • Metal Finishing
  • Textiles
  • Petroleum secondary recovery

PBTC Anti-Scalant/Dispersant

PBTC is a 50% active aqueous solution of 2-phosphonobutane-1, 2, 4-tricarboxylic acid. It acts as a crystal modifying agent and threshold inhibitor for calcium and other metal salts. PBTC is widely used in industry as a sequestering agent and calcium carbonate scale inhibitor. In systems that utilize oxidizing microbiocides, such as chlorine and bromine, PBTC exhibits superior stability under oxidizing conditions compared to other organophosphonate compounds.

PBTC Applications

  • Cooling Water Treatment
  • Reverse osmosis formulation
  • Industrial Cleaners
  • Dispersion/Deflocculation applications
  • Metal Finishing
  • Textiles
  • Bottle Washing

AMP Anti-Scalant/Dispersant

AMP is a 50% active aqueous solution of aminotris (methylene phosphonic acid), AMP. It provides control of calcium and other metal salts including iron and manganese by acting as a crystal modifying agent and threshold inhibition. AMP is know to be a sequestrant and deposit control agent due to its dispersing and deflocculating characteristics.

AMP Applications

  • Cooling Water Treatment
  • Boiler Water Treatment
  • Industrial Cleaners
  • Metal Finishing
  • Petroleum secondary discovery
  • Bottle Washing
