Application Recommendations

Recommended dosage

Field of Application Recommended dosage Description
Industrial detergents 5-20% Adjusted according to purification requirements and formulation
Metalworking fluid 1-10% To prevent interference from metal ions
Boiler water treatment 10-50 mg/L Adjust according to water hardness
Household Cleaning Products 1-5% Improves cleaning, softens water

Application recommendations

  • Shake before use to ensure uniformity of the solution.
  • Compatible with most surfactants, but a preliminary compatibility test is recommended.
  • Avoid direct mixing with strong acids to prevent reduction in chelating efficiency.
  • Recommended storage temperature 5-35°C, avoid freezing and high temperatures.
Important Notes
  • The specific dosage should be adjusted according to formulation requirements, target crop, and local regulations.
  • It is recommended to conduct a trial test before large-scale application.
  • Before mixing with other chemicals, perform a compatibility test.

Field of Application

Industrial cleaning

Used in industrial cleaners, metal treatment solutions, boiler water treatment, etc., to effectively remove metal ions and prevent scale formation and corrosion.
