HMDTMPA-6K

HMDTMPA-6K (CAS 53473-28-2) is the hexapotassium salt of hexamethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid, with high water solubility compared to the acid form.

Where is HMDTMPA-6K used?

• Water treatment: scale control in cooling towers, boilers and reverse osmosis membranes
• Textile and paper processing: sequestering metal ions that interfere with dyeing uniformity or bleaching
• Cleaning formulations: stabilising actives and preventing metal-induced discolouration or degradation
• Agricultural formulations: complexing trace metals in liquid fertilisers and micronutrient solutions
• It binds calcium, magnesium, iron and other hardness-causing metal ions to prevent scale and inhibit corrosion.

Commercial specifications

• Active content typically 20–30%
• IBC containers and drums
