Scale inhibitors are generally not classified as hazardous chemicals, but their safety and danger need to be evaluated based on their specific composition and concentration. Scale inhibitor is a chemical additive used to prevent the formation and deposition of scale in water systems. They usually contain inorganic salts, organic compounds, or polymers, which can effectively…
Scale remover and scale inhibitor are two different chemical additives that differ in application and function. Descaler: Descaler is mainly used to remove scale or sediment that has already formed in the water system. Scale is a hard deposit formed by the crystallization of inorganic salts, carbonates, oxides, etc. dissolved in water on the surface…

Cationic chelating agents are a type of chemical substance whose main function is to form stable complexes with metal ions. They change their activity, solubility, and behavior by forming coordination bonds with cations in metal ions. The main functions of cationic chelating agents are as follows: Complexation: Cationic chelating agents can form complexes with metal…
Polycarboxylic acid water reducing agent is a commonly used concrete admixture that can be used to improve the workability and strength of concrete. The following is a common example of a polycarboxylic acid water reducer formula: Polycarboxylic acid main chain polymer: It is commonly used as a main chain polymer of polycarboxylic acid water reducing…
Corrosion and scale inhibitors are chemicals used to prevent metal corrosion and scale deposition. In China, the national standard for corrosion and scale inhibitors is GB/T 20476-2006 “Corrosion and Scale Inhibitors for Boiler Water Treatment Agents”. This standard specifies in detail the technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules and markings, packaging, transportation, storage, and other…

Polyacrylic Acid Sodium is a commonly used dispersant, also known as PAA-Na. It is a high molecular weight inorganic compound that can form stable colloidal solutions in water. As a dispersant, sodium polyacrylate has the following main characteristics and applications: Dispersion performance: Sodium polyacrylate can adsorb on the surface of solid particles, forming a negatively…
Dispersant is an additive used to disperse solid particles in a liquid medium to avoid particle aggregation and precipitation. It has a wide range of applications in various industries, including but not limited to the following aspects: Coatings and Ink Industry: Dispersants play an important role in coatings and inks. They help stabilize the pigment…
Copper ion chelating agent is a chemical substance that can form stable complexes with copper ions. They play an important role in many fields, including the following aspects: Antioxidant: Copper ion chelating agents can combine with free copper ions, thereby reducing their reactivity to oxygen. This can effectively inhibit the participation of copper ions in…
A corrosion inhibitor is a chemical substance that can slow down or inhibit the corrosion process of metals. They function through various mechanisms, including the following corrosion inhibition principles: Blocking effect: Corrosion inhibitors can form a protective deposit on the metal surface. These deposits can block the contact between metals and corrosive media, reducing the…
Polyacrylic acid (PAA) is a polymer obtained by polymerization of acrylic acid monomers. It belongs to a colorless to light yellow homopolymer, and several common forms include solid powder, viscous liquid, and solution. Due to its excellent water solubility, polyacrylic acid plays an important role in many fields, with the following characteristics and applications: Superabsorbent:…
