Application Information
     
  • Detergents & Cleaners: Stabilizes detergents containing perborates, persulfate and peroxide bleaches. Improves detergency of surfactants.
  •  
  • Pulp/Paper: Improves bleaching efficiency by preventing metal catalyzed decomposition of peroxide and hydrosulfite bleaches. Reduces brightness reversion in kraft, sulfite, recycle and thermomechanical pulps.
  •  
  • Textiles: Stabilizes peroxide bleach baths, improves bleaching efficiency, and prevents fabric tendering. Used in preparation stage to improve cleaning and remove metals that are harmful in subsequent bleaching, dyeing, and finishing operations.
  •  
  • Soap: Prevents chalking, rancidity, and metal catalyzed discoloration. Prevents formation of metal-soap curds.
  •  
  • Polymerization: Used in the polymerization of styrene-butadiene rubber. Reduces metal contamination in suspension polymerization of PVC. Stabilizes polymer systems.
