Scale Inhibitors
Prevent mineral buildup in pipelines, heat exchangers, and RO membranes:
- HEDP (1-Hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid) – Effective against calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate
- ATMP (Aminotris(methylenephosphonic acid)) – Controls scale in high-hardness systems
- PBTC (2-Phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid) – Excellent thermal stability and calcium tolerance
Corrosion Inhibitors
Protect metal surfaces from oxidation and degradation:
- Sodium molybdate (Na₂MoO₄) – Non-toxic corrosion control
- Zinc orthophosphate – Used in potable water systems
- Benzotriazole (BTA) – Copper and brass protection
Biocides & Algaecides
Control microbial growth and biofilm formation:
- Isothiazolinone – Broad-spectrum biocide for cooling towers and process water
- Glutaraldehyde – Effective against bacteria, fungi, and algae
- DBNPA (2,2-Dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide) – Fast-acting, non-oxidizing biocide
Antiscalants for Reverse Osmosis (RO)
Extend membrane life and improve system efficiency:
- Polyacrylate-based antiscalants – Prevent scaling from calcium, barium, and silica
- Blended phosphonate formulations – Compatible with most RO systems
Foam Control Agents
Manage foam in aeration tanks, chemical dosing systems, and industrial mixers:
- Silicone-based defoamers – Long-lasting and effective in high-shear environments
- Non-silicone antifoams – Suitable for food-grade and sensitive applications
pH Buffers & Conditioning Agents
Stabilize pH and improve chemical performance:
- Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) – Mild buffering agent
- Citric acid – pH control and metal chelation
- Phosphate blends – Used in boiler and cooling water treatment
