Product Information
Product Nature
Physical Properties:
· Appearance: White or slightly yellow crystals, powder, or granules.
· Solubility: Freely soluble in water and ethanol; slightly soluble in ether.
· Hygroscopicity: Hygroscopic, may cake in moist air.
· Forms: Commonly available in anhydrous and monohydrate (C₆H₈O₇·H₂O) forms.Chemical & Functional Properties:
· Acidity: A tricarboxylic acid with pKa values of 3.14, 4.77, and 6.39, effectively providing H⁺ ions to adjust system pH.
· Strong Chelation: Efficiently chelates various metal ions (e.g., Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Fe²⁺/³⁺), forming soluble complexes. This is its core function in cleaning and water treatment applications.
· Biodegradability: Can be completely degraded by microorganisms in the environment, making it environmentally friendly and a key alternative to persistent chemicals like phosphates.
· Good Water Solubility: Easy to formulate and use.
· Safety: Less corrosive compared to many mineral acids.
Product Usage
Cleaning & Detergent Industry (Primary Application):
· Detergent Builder: Serves as a chelating agent in phosphate-free detergents to soften water and enhance cleaning efficiency.
· Cleaning Agent: Used as a descaling agent for boilers, heat exchangers, and pipelines, effectively dissolving calcium carbonate and rust scale.
· Metal Cleaning: Used in metal surface treatment before electroplating and painting.Water Treatment:
· pH Adjuster: Used to adjust the pH of industrial wastewater and circulating cooling water.
· Chelating Agent: Used to prevent scaling and corrosion in cooling water systems.Chemical & Textile Industries:
· Chemical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of citrates and other chemicals.
· Textile Dyeing & Finishing: Used as a pH regulator and complexing agent in dyeing and finishing processes.Construction Industry:
· Concrete Retarder: Retards the setting time of cement, improving workability.Oilfield Applications:
· Acidizing Fluid Additive: Used in well stimulation acidizing treatments.Other Industries:
· Used in flue gas desulfurization, cosmetics, pesticides, etc.
Safety Matters
Health Hazards:
· Irritating to eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Powder or concentrated solutions can cause burns, redness, and pain.
· Inhalation of dust may cause respiratory irritation, such as coughing and sore throat.
· NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. Industrial grade may contain impurities not suitable for food standards.Handling Protection:
· Must be handled in a well-ventilated area. Wear a dust mask, chemical safety goggles, and chemical-resistant gloves.
· Avoid dust formation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing.
· Wash hands and exposed skin thoroughly after handling.Storage & Transportation:
· Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse. Strictly protect from moisture.
· Keep containers tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption and caking.
· Must be stored separately from food, feedstuffs, strong oxidizers, and alkalis. Clearly label "For Industrial Use Only - Not for Food".Fire Fighting:
· Combustible? Low combustibility, but may decompose at elevated temperatures.
· Use water, foam, dry chemical, or CO2 to extinguish fire.
· Decomposes at temperatures above 175°C, producing irritating fumes and gases like carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.Environmental Considerations:
· Although biodegradable, avoid significant release into the environment.
