In industry, EDTA is mainly used to sequester metal ions in aqueous solution. In the textile industry, it prevents metal ion impurities from modifying colors of dyed products. In the pulp and paper industry, EDTA inhibits the ability of metal ions, especially Mn2+, from catalyzing the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide, which is used in "chlorine-free bleaching." In a similar manner, EDTA is added to some food as a preservative or stabilizer to prevent catalytic oxidative decoloration, which is catalyzed by metal ions.In soft drinks containing ascorbic acid and sodium benzoate, EDTA mitigates formation of benzene (a carcinogen).Product IdentificationSynonyms name:Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid;EDTACAS No:60-00-4Molecular Weight:292.24Chemical Formula:C10H16N2O8TEST ITEMLIMTAPPEARANCEWhite crystalline powderрН 5% р-р 25°C2.6-3.2Purity %≥99.0%Clarification testTransparentSulfate≤0.1Chlorides, %≤0.1Heavy metals (as Pb) %≤0.001Chelate: mgCaCO3/g339 minKeywords:EDTA;EDTA industry;textile industry;Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid.Baoding Kaiyue Chemical Co.,LTDTel:+86 03123220379Fax:+86 03133289655Copyright © 2016 Kaiyuechem Ltd.
