EDTA Tetrahydrate 99% 25kg

EDTA Tetrahydrate 99% (specifically [Tetrasodium EDTA], CAS 64-02-8 or 10378-23-1) is a high-purity industrial chelating agent used to sequester metal ions in water treatment, detergents, textiles, and pulp/paper production. Its primary role is to prevent metal-induced discolouration, scaling, and degradation, improving product stability and process efficiency.

Key Industrial Applications
Water Treatment: Softens water by binding calcium, magnesium, and other metal ions, preventing scale formation and corrosion in boilers and cooling towers.
Cleaning Agents & Detergents: Acts as a builder in industrial soaps and cleaning solutions, enhancing detergent efficiency by removing metal ions that interfere with cleaning.
Textile Processing: Used in bleaching and dyeing, it stabilizes hydrogen peroxide, prevents metal catalyzed discoloration, and improves dye brightness and uniformity.
Pulp & Paper Manufacturing: Increases bleaching efficiency by removing metal ions that catalyze the decomposition of bleaching agents, improving paper brightness and strength.
Metal Processing & Electroplating: Employed in metal cleaning, rust removal, and electroplating baths to remove scale and control metal ion concentrations.
Agriculture & Micronutrients: Acts as a chelating agent for micronutrients (iron, zinc, manganese) in fertilizers to enhance nutrient availability to plants.
Polymer & Rubber Production: Used as a polymerization initiator or terminator, particularly in styrene-butadiene rubber production.
Cosmetics & Personal Care: Serves as a stabiliser to prevent rancidity and discolouration in creams, lotions, and soaps.
