FAQ

Key Differences:

  • Chemical FormEDTA-4NH₄ is a tetraammonium salt, EDTA-4Na is a tetrasodium salt
  • pH ValueEDTA-4NH₄ is weakly alkaline (pH 8.5-9.5), EDTA-4Na is strongly alkaline (pH 11.0-12.0)
  • ContentEDTA-4NH₄ content ≥ 50%, EDTA-4Na content ≥ 39%
  • ApplicationEDTA-4NH₄ is more suitable for applications requiring a mild alkaline environment

EDTA-4NH₄ solution offers the following advantages:

  • Ready-to-UseNo dissolving needed, use directly to save time and equipment
  • Good CompatibilityLiquid form facilitates easy mixing with other liquid products
  • Precise MeasurementEasy to accurately measure and control dosage
  • Dust ReductionAvoids dust issues in solid powder operations
