Description
Structure Formula:
HEDP also known as etidronic acid shows multifunctional properties that includes scale inhibition and corrosion inhibition. It can chelate metal ions like Fe, Cu and Zn. It shows good chemical stability under high pH value. Furthermore, it is difficult to hydrolyze and decompose under ordinary light and heat conditions.
HEDP is used in several end use applications that include detergents, paper and personal care, oilfield, textile, water treatment. Furthermore, it can be used for formulating RO membrane antiscalants, thermal desalination antiscalants, formulation for treating sterilizers etc. It can be used directly also for such applications.
