Superior Chelating Ability: Strongly binds with metal ions such as calcium, iron, and copper, preventing scale and corrosion.
Environmentally Friendly: Biodegradable and less toxic compared to many other chelating agents.
Wide pH Range Stability: Effective over a broad pH range, making it suitable for various applications.
High Solubility: Readily soluble in water, facilitating easy dosing and application.
Applications:
Water Treatment: Used in industrial and municipal water treatment to prevent scale formation and corrosion in boilers, cooling towers, and reverse osmosis systems.
Cleaning Agents: Effective in cleaning products to remove mineral deposits and stains.
Personal Care: Utilized in personal care products for its chelating properties, improving product stability and performance.
Industrial Processes: Employed in various industrial processes to inhibit scale formation and promote efficient operation.
Safety Information:
Handle HEMPA with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, safety goggles, and a mask to prevent skin and eye contact.
Avoid inhalation of dust or vapors. In case of contact, flush immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice if necessary.
Storage Conditions:
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Keep containers tightly sealed to maintain product integrity and prevent moisture absorption or contamination.
