EDTA 2NA

Description

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid Disodium Salt (EDTA 2Na)

Chemical Formula: C₁₀H₁₄N₂Na₂O₈·2H₂O

EDTA 2Na is a versatile chelating agent, meaning it can effectively bind to metal ions, forming stable, water-soluble complexes. This unique property makes it a valuable compound across a wide range of industries.

Key Uses:

• Water Treatment:
  • Sequestering Metal Ions: Effectively binds to metal ions like calcium, magnesium, iron, and copper, preventing their precipitation and deposition on equipment surfaces.
  • Corrosion Inhibition: Helps control corrosion in industrial water systems by preventing the formation of corrosive deposits.
  • Scale Prevention: Prevents the formation of scale in boilers, cooling towers, and heat exchangers, improving equipment efficiency and longevity.
• Detergents and Cleaning Products:
  • Improved Cleaning Performance: Enhances the cleaning effectiveness of detergents by sequestering metal ions that can interfere with surfactant action, leading to better cleaning results.
  • Hard Water Softening: Helps soften hard water by binding to calcium and magnesium ions, reducing their impact on cleaning performance.
  • Used in various cleaning products: Including laundry detergents, dishwashing detergents, and personal care products like shampoos and cosmetics.
• Food Industry:
  • Food Preservative: Employed as a food additive (E386) to stabilize and preserve food products by chelating metal ions that can catalyze oxidation reactions.
  • Beverage Stabilization: Used in the production of beverages to improve their stability and prevent the formation of haze or cloudiness.
  • Flavor Enhancement: Can enhance the flavor of certain foods by preventing metal-catalyzed reactions.
• Industrial Applications:
  • Textile Dyeing: Improves dye fixation and colorfastness in textile dyeing processes.
  • Paper Manufacturing: Used in paper manufacturing processes to improve paper quality and strength.
  • Metal Finishing: Employed in various metal finishing processes, such as electroplating and metal cleaning.
• Pharmaceutical Industry:
  • Pharmaceutical Formulations: Used as a stabilizer and chelating agent in the formulation of various pharmaceuticals.
  • Anticoagulant: Used as an anticoagulant in blood collection and processing.
  • Drug Delivery: Used in drug delivery systems to improve the stability and bioavailability of certain medications.
• Analytical Chemistry:
  • Complexometric Titrations: Used as a titrant in complexometric titrations for the determination of metal ion concentrations.
