In addition to industrial detergents, what other applications can ATMP-N-Oxide be used in?
ATMP-N-Oxide (Nitrogen Oxide of Amino Trimethylene Phosphonic Acid, Pentapotassium Salt) can be useful in the following fields in addition to its application in industrial detergents:
- Water treatment: As a water treatment agent, ATMP-N-Oxide has good chelating, low-limit inhibition and lattice distortion effects, which can prevent scale-forming salts in water from forming scale, and it is especially suitable for the inhibition of calcium carbonate scale. It is used in circulating cooling water of thermal power plants, oil refineries, oilfield refill water systems to reduce corrosion and scaling of metal equipment or pipelines .
- Textile and printing and dyeing industry: ATMP-N-Oxide is used as metal ion chelating agent, also can be used as metal surface treatment agent, due to its high purity, especially suitable for winter cold area.
- Swimming pool water treatment: ATMP-N-Oxide is used as a mild scale inhibitor in swimming pool water treatment to prevent scaling problems and has superior chlorine stability.
- Disinfectants: Due to its stability and chelating ability, ATMP-N-Oxide can be used in disinfectant formulations, especially in applications where hardening of water and scaling of equipment needs to be prevented .
- Cyanide-free plating additives: ATMP-N-Oxide is used as an additive in cyanide-free plating processes to enhance the performance of electrolytes and plating results.
- Extractant for precious metals: ATMP-N-Oxide can be used as extractant in the extraction and refining process of precious metals.
- Industrial circulating cool water system: ATMP-N-Oxide is compounded with other organic phosphonic acids, polycarboxylic acids or salts to form an organic alkaline water treatment agent, which can be used in circulating cool water systems under different water quality conditions.
These applications demonstrate the versatility of ATMP-N-Oxide and its usefulness in different industrial processes.
