HEDP 60%, HEDP Acid
HEDP is mainly produced by a reaction of Phosphorus Trichloride (PCl3) and Glacious Acetic Acid (CH3COOH) in the tertiary amine. Besides, some plants also use another continuous process to synthesize HEDP by Phosphorous Trichloride (PCl3) and Acetyl chloride (CH3COCl).
CAS No.:

Structure Formula:
Properties:
HEDP 60 is an excellent corrosion inhibitor and antiscalant. HEDP 60% can dissolve the oxidized materials on these metals’ surfaces. It shows the excellent scale and corrosion inhibition effects under temperature 250℃.
Under high pH value and/or 250℃, HEDP 60% shows good chemical stability. It is difficult to be decomposed by normal light and heat conditions. Actually, its tolerance to acid, alkali and chlorine oxidation is better than most of the other organophosphates.
HEDP can react with metal ions in the water system to form a Hexa-element chelating complex. It can chelate with Ba, Pb, Fe, Zn, Cu ion and especially Ca ions. Therefore, HEDP 60 has good antiscale and visible threshold effects. The oxidate on these metal surfaces will be dissolved by HEDP. Synergy will be achieved when HEDP is built with other WT chemicals, usually polycarboxylic acid.
Besides liquid, HEDP solid is offered in crystal powder for freezing regions, especially in winter. Because of HEDP solid is a high purity, it can be used as a cleaning agent in electronic fields and as additives in daily chemicals.

Uses:
HEDP 60 is used as scale and corrosion inhibition in circulating cool water system, oil field and low-pressure boilers in fields. HEDP is a widely used power station, oil fields, chemical plants, metallurgic plant for cooling water system and boilers as scale inhibitor with preferred dosage 1-10 mg/L (antiscalant) and 10-50 mg/L (corrosion inhibitor).
In the daily chemical industry, HEDP is used as metal and nonmetal detergent. Dosage is usually 1000-2000 mg/L. It is also a peroxide stabilizer and dye-fixing agent in the dyeing industry.
Usually, HEDP acid chemicals are used together with the polycarboxylic acid.
