Widely used in the paper and pulp industry, our EDTA Disodium is formulated in compliance with international quality standards. We are a renowned Importer and Supplier of EDTA Disodium from Maharashtra, India.  The EDTA Disodium offered by us is mainly used to sequester metal ions in aqueous solution. Buyers are free to place bulk orders of chemicals and we ensure their timely execution.

Applications : Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, widely abbreviated as EDTA (for other names, see Table), is an aminopolycarboxylic acid and a colourless, water-soluble solid. Its conjugate base is named ethylenediaminetetraacetate. It is widely used to dissolve lime scale. Its usefulness arises because of its role as a hexadentate ("six-toothed") ligand and chelating agent, i.e., its ability to "sequester" metal ions such as Ca2+ and Fe3+. After being bound by EDTA, metal ions remain in solution but exhibit diminished reactivity. EDTA is produced as several salts, notably disodium EDTA and calcium disodium EDTA.

Usage : n industry, EDTA is mainly used to sequester metal ions in aqueous solution. In the textile industry, it prevents metal ion impurities from modifying colors of dyed products. In the pulp and paper industry, EDTA inhibits the ability of metal ions, especially Mn²⁺, from catalyzing the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide, which is used in "chlorine-free bleaching." In a similar manner, EDTA is added to some food as a preservative or stabilizer to prevent catalytic oxidative decoloration, which is catalyzed by metal ions.In soft drinks containing ascorbic acid and sodium benzoate, EDTA mitigates formation of benzene
