Tetrasodium edta Use
detergent auxiliaries and cleaning agents
Tetrasodium edta EDTA-4NA is commonly used in detergents and cleaning agents. It helps to remove calcium and magnesium ions from hard water,which can interfere with the cleaning process and leave residue on surfaces. EDTA-4NA also helps to prevent scale and rust in pipes and appliances.
Agriculture
In agriculture, Tetrasodium edta EDTA-4NA improves the availability of micronutrients such as iron, zinc and copper in the soil. It helps to prevent being insoluble complexes between these micronutrients and other soil components, which can make them unavailable to plants.
EDTA-4NA is also used as a foliar spray to correct nutrient deficiencies in plants.
Food and beverage industry
Tetrasodium edta EDTA-4NA one use is food additive to prevent spoilage and discoloration. It helps to preserve the color, flavor and texture of foods by preventing the oxidation of fats and oils. EDTA-4NA can also prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi in food and beverages.
Pharmaceuticals
For certain pharmaceuticals, EDTA-4NA improves their stability and efficacy. As a chelating agent, it removes metal ions that can cause oxidation and degradation of the active ingredients.
Industry
styrene butadiene rubber polymerization initiator, acrylic fiber initiator, printing and dyeing auxiliaries.
Aquaculture
Tetrasodium edta EDTA 4NA can improve water quality by removing heavy metals and other contaminants. High concentrations heavy metals such as copper, lead, and zinc are harmful to aquatic life. EDTA 4NA chelates these metals and prevents them from binding to other compounds in the water. This makes it easier to remove them through filtration.
Packaging
