- Product Description
-
Disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate is a white, crystalline granular or powdered chelating agent that strongly binds metal ions in aqueous solutions. It forms highly stable chelates not only with alkali metal ions but also with most other metal ions—such as alkaline earth metals and ferrous/ferric metals—effectively eliminating harmful metallic ions and the adverse effects they can cause. As a result, it plays a crucial role in preventing oxidation and maintaining product quality.
