HEDP 60%

Chelating agent, Scale and Corrosion Inhibitor. Scale prevention and corrosion inhibition in water treatment.






Description

HEDP ACID chemical name is Hydroxy Ethylidene -1,1-Diphosphonic acid manufacturer, supplier and exporter. HEDP is  organophosphonate compound which have chemical properties of sequestration, deflocculation, threshold inhibition and hydrolytic stability etc. HEDP is an organophosphoric acid corrosion inhibitor. It can chelate with Fe, Cu, and Zn ions to form stable chelating compounds. It can dissolve the oxidized materials on these metals’ surfaces.

Application:

RXSOL-81-8160-250 chemically having wide range of applications including scale prevention and corrosion inhibition in water treatment. 

Hydroxy Ethylidene -1,1-Diphosphonic acid is organophosphonate with multifunctional properties like sequestration, deflocculation, threshold inhibition and hydrolytic stability, as a single active ingredient. Because of the combination of these properties Hydroxy Ethylidene -1,1-Diphosphonic acid has a wide range of applications. One of the most important applications is in scale prevention and corrosion inhibition in water treatment. 

Dose:

HEDP is used as chelating agent. The dosage of 1-10mg/L is preferred as scale inhibitor, 10-50mg/L as corrosion inhibitor, and 1000-2000mg/L as detergent. Usually, HEDP is used together with polycarboxylic acid. It is used as a strong chelating agent for metal ions like Ca, Mg & Fe in water treatment, textile applications. Its efficient inhibition for CaCO3 & CaSO4 alone or in combination with low molecular weight polymers. Very effective in protecting metal corrosion. HEDP also having very strong chlorine stability. 

Note:

Storage for ten months in room shady and dry place. Safety Protection: Acidity, Avoid contact with eye and skin, once contacted, flush with water.

3. (b) HAZARDS – TOXICITY:

Effects, Acute Exposure:

Skin Contact

Irritating, may be corrosive if not removed promptly

Skin Absorption                      

Slight; no toxic effects likely by this route

Eye Contact

Irritating, may be corrosive if not removed promptly

Inhalation

Product mist is irritating; prolonged exposure may be corrosive to respiratory tract

Ingestion

Irritating to mouth, throat & stomach – not a route of industrial exposure

Effects, Chronic Exposure:

General

Chronic ingestion of HEDP binds to bone, reducing mineralization of bone in adult beagles & in young rats giving rise to less calcium (& presumably strength) in bone

Sensitising

Not a sensitiser in humans or animals

Carcinogen/Tumorigen    

Not considered a tumorigen or a carcinogen in humans or animals

Reproductive Effect

Reduced fertility in rats on prolonged ingestion; no known effect in humans

Mutagen

No known effect on humans or animals; some mutagenic effect observed in onion & barley root tips – significance of this to human health is not known

 SKIN:

Wash with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and do not reuse until thoroughly laundered.

 EYES:

Wash eyes with plenty of water, holding eyelids open. Seek medical assistance promptly if there is irritation.

 INHALATION:           

Remove from contaminated area promptly. CAUTION: Rescuer must not endanger himself! If breathing stops, administer artificial respiration and seek medical aid promptly.

 INGESTION:

Give plenty of water to dilute product, or milk if available to neutralise it. Do not induce vomiting (NOTE below). Keep victim quiet. If vomiting occurs, lower victim’s head below hips to prevent inhalation of vomited material. Seek medical help promptly.

 

Inadvertent inhalation of vomited material may seriously damage the lungs. The danger of this is greater than the risk of poisoning through absorption of this relatively low-toxicity substance. The stomach should only be emptied under medical supervision, and after the installation of an airway to protect the lungs.
