Description

Acrylid Acid Itaconic Acid Copolymer is a synthetic polymer derived from the copolymerization of acrylic acid and itaconic acid. This copolymer is valued for its excellent chelating, dispersing, and scale-inhibiting properties in aqueous systems. It is primarily utilized in water treatment, detergent formulations, and as a superplasticizer in construction materials. The product is supplied as a hygroscopic powder or solution, requiring appropriate handling to maintain performance.

Application

• Water Treatment: Acts as a highly effective scale and corrosion inhibitor in cooling water, boiler water, and reverse osmosis systems.
• Detergent & Cleaner Formulations: Functions as a builder and dispersant to enhance cleaning power and prevent redeposition of soil in laundry and industrial cleaners.
• Construction Chemicals: Serves as a superplasticizer and dispersing agent in cement, concrete, and gypsum to improve workability and reduce water content.
• Paper & Pulp Industry: Used as a dispersant for pigments and fillers, and as a retention aid to improve paper quality and production efficiency.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a dye dispersant and anti-redeposition agent to ensure uniform coloration and fabric cleanliness.
• Personal Care: Incorporated into products like toothpaste and shampoos for its thickening and stabilizing properties.

Quality Control

Our Acrylid Acid Itaconic Acid Copolymer is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing for key parameters such as solid content, viscosity, pH, and residual monomers to ensure consistency and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, providing full traceability and compliance with relevant industry standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect product performance.
