EDTA diammonium powder is a versatile chelating agent used in agriculture, water treatment, and industrial applications. It helps improve the availability of micronutrients in fertilizers and prevents metal ion interference in various chemical processes. Its powdered form allows for easy handling and formulation.

Industrial Uses

1. Agrochemicals

  • Micronutrient Chelating Agent : Binds with metal ions like Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, Mg to form stable chelates, making them more bioavailable to plants in both soil and foliar applications.
  • Soil Conditioner Additive : Improves nutrient retention and uptake in poor or alkaline soils by preventing micronutrient precipitation or leaching.
  • Ingredient in Liquid & Solid Fertilizers : Used in NPK formulations or customized micronutrient blends to enhance nutrient delivery and plant health.

2. Cleaning & Disinfectants

  • Water Softener in Detergents : Chelates calcium and magnesium ions in hard water, improving cleaning performance of soaps, shampoos, and household detergents.
  • Metal Ion Control in Surface Cleaners : Prevents metal ion interference in industrial or household cleaning agents, preserving the stability and effectiveness of the formulation.
  • Scale Inhibitor : Helps control lime and scale formation in boilers, pipelines, and washing systems by sequestering scale-forming ions.

3. Fabric Solutions

  • Bleaching Agent Enhancer : Enhances textile bleaching by binding with trace metals like iron or copper, which can otherwise decompose peroxide bleach.
  • Dye Process Stabilizer : Controls metal ion concentrations during dyeing and printing to ensure uniform color uptake and prevent color spots or streaks.

4. Water Treatment 

  • Heavy Metal Remover : Binds with toxic heavy metals (like Pb²⁺, Hg²⁺, Cd²⁺), enabling their safe extraction from industrial wastewater or municipal water systems.
  • Boiler Water Conditioner : Prevents metal ion deposition in boilers and cooling towers, reducing scaling, corrosion, and maintenance costs.

5. Personal Care 

  • Stabilizer in Formulations : Acts as a chelating agent in creams, lotions, and other personal care products to enhance shelf life by preventing metal-catalyzed oxidation.
  • pH Buffering and Metal Protection : Helps maintain pH and protect active ingredients from degradation by binding with trace metals that could otherwise destabilize the formulation.
