Hydroxyethylidene Diphosphonic Acid Liquid 60% (HEDP 60%)

Hydroxyethylidene Diphosphonic Acid Liquid 60% (HEDP 60%) is a versatile, aqueous solution of HEDP that acts as a strong chelating agent and corrosion inhibitor. It is widely used in water treatment, industrial cleaning, and other applications where preventing scale and corrosion is essential. The 60% concentration provides high efficacy in various environments and can be easily integrated into liquid formulations.

Applications:

1. Water Treatment: HEDP 60% is primarily used to prevent scale formation and corrosion in cooling water systems, boilers, and reverse osmosis systems.
2. Oil and Gas Industry: Used in oil field applications to prevent scale and protect equipment from corrosion.
3. Industrial Cleaners: Incorporated in cleaning formulations to remove scale, stains, and mineral deposits on metal surfaces.
4. Textile and Dyeing: Employed to prevent water hardness issues during the dyeing process.
5. Paper and Pulp Industry: Helps in controlling scaling in water systems used during paper manufacturing.
6. Cosmetics: Occasionally used in personal care formulations as a stabilizing agent.

Handling:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Wear protective gloves, safety goggles, and appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation when handling the liquid.
• Safe Handling Practices: Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. Do not inhale vapors. Use in well-ventilated areas or under fume hoods.
• Spillage: In the event of a spill, contain the liquid and absorb it with an inert material such as sand or vermiculite. Dispose of waste according to local environmental regulations.

Storage:

• Conditions: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the container tightly closed to avoid contamination and evaporation.
• Temperature: Store at ambient temperatures, ideally between 10°C and 30°C. Protect from freezing and excessive heat.
• Materials of Construction: Store in corrosion-resistant containers made of plastic, fiberglass, or stainless steel.
• Shelf Life: The product remains stable for up to 1 year when stored properly.
