Description

2-Propenoic Acid, Polymer With 2,5-Furandione, Potassium Salt is a high-performance, water-soluble polymer derived from acrylic acid and maleic anhydride. This specialized copolymer is valued for its exceptional scale inhibition and dispersant properties in aqueous systems. It is a critical additive for industries requiring superior water treatment and process efficiency, particularly in cooling water systems, detergents, and mineral processing.

Application

• Industrial Water Treatment: Primary application as a highly effective scale inhibitor and dispersant for calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, and metal oxides in cooling towers, boilers, and reverse osmosis systems.
• Detergent & Cleaning Formulations: Acts as a builder and anti-redeposition agent in laundry and dishwashing detergents, enhancing cleaning power and preventing soil from re-depositing on fabrics.
• Pulp & Paper Processing: Used as a dispersant and deposit control agent to improve pulp bleaching efficiency and prevent pitch and stickies deposition on machinery.
• Mineral Processing: Employed as a dispersant in mineral slurry transport and processing to prevent agglomeration and improve throughput.
• Textile Industry: Serves as a dye dispersant and anti-precipitant to ensure uniform dyeing and prevent scale buildup in dye baths.
• Oilfield Applications: Functions as a scale inhibitor in squeeze treatments to prevent mineral scale formation in wellbores and production equipment.
