1. Cleaning & Disinfectants

• Water Softening Agent : Binds to calcium and magnesium ions in hard water to prevent interference with surfactants, thereby enhancing detergent effectiveness.
• Builder in Laundry and Dishwashing Detergents : Helps remove stains and grease by sequestering metal ions that hinder surfactant performance.
• Surface Cleaner in Industrial Applications : Added to floor, machine, and glass cleaners to dissolve scale, soap scum, and rust more effectively.

2. Water Treatment 

• Chelating Agent for Scale Prevention : Prevents scale formation in boilers, cooling towers, and pipelines by binding calcium and other metal ions.
• Metal Removal from Wastewater : Used in industrial effluent treatment to chelate and remove heavy metals like iron, lead, and copper.

3. Fabric Solutions

• Water Softener in Dye Baths : Ensures consistent dye uptake by removing interfering metal ions in dyeing processes.
• Stabilizer in Bleaching and Finishing : Prevents metal-catalyzed degradation of bleaching agents like hydrogen peroxide, thus improving fabric brightness.
• Dispersant in Printing Pastes : Enhances the dispersion of pigments and dyes in textile printing for uniform coloration.

4. Pulp & Paper Solutions

• Brightening Agent Support : Binds metal ions that catalyze hydrogen peroxide degradation during pulp bleaching, increasing brightness and whiteness.
• Pitch Control Agent : Prevents accumulation of resinous substances (pitch) in machinery by binding the metal ions that promote pitch agglomeration.

5. Metal Treatment

• Metal Ion Control in Electroplating Baths : Maintains stable metal ion concentrations, which helps in uniform deposition of metals like zinc, nickel, or copper.
• Cleaner for Metal Surfaces : Removes oxide layers and metal residues from parts before or after plating, improving surface quality.

6. Agrochemicals

• Micronutrient Carrier in Fertilizers : Chelates essential metals like zinc, manganese, and iron for plant uptake, preventing precipitation in soils.
• Soil Conditioner : Binds to excess calcium or magnesium in saline soils, improving soil structure and nutrient absorption.
