EDTMPS, a heavy metal chelating agent, is a chemical substance used in water treatment, petrochemical industry, and other industrial applications. Its main component is Ethylene Diamine Tetra (methylene Phosphonic Acid) Sodium Salt, commonly abbreviated as EDTMPS-Na4.
EDTMPS is a nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur chelating agent with excellent chelating and anti scaling properties. It can form stable complexes that react with heavy metal ions such as calcium, magnesium, and copper, thereby reducing their concentration and impact in water. At the same time, EDTMPS can also inhibit the precipitation and crystallization of carbonates and sulfates in water, reduce the formation of scale layers in pipelines, equipment, and heat exchangers, and improve the efficiency and service life of water treatment systems.
EDTMPS-Na4 is a tetrasodium salt of EDTMPS, commonly used in water treatment, cooling water circulation systems, boiler descaling, and petrochemical industries. Its specific component is thiobis (1-hydroxyethyl) -1,1-ethyldimethylphosphonate tetrasodium (C6H6O12N2P4SNa4), which contains elements such as sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sodium in its molecular formula. It should be noted that different manufacturers and suppliers may provide EDTMPS formulations with different formulas and ingredients based on specific needs. Therefore, in practical applications, it is necessary to have a detailed understanding of the product description and guidance provided by the supplier.
