About EDTA

Sourcing EDTA Acid (99%)? ChemicalDekho connects you with leading manufacturers like Ava Chemicals and Vinati Organics. Access high-purity chelating agents for water treatment and industrial cleaning.

EDTA (CAS 60-00-4) is the industry standard for 'locking up' multivalent metal ions like Calcium, Magnesium, and Iron. This prevents scale formation in boilers, stabilizes cosmetic formulations against oxidation, and improves the efficiency of textile scouring. Listings cover the pure acid form and its common sodium salts (Disodium/Tetrasodium).

The platform ensures verified supply with high chelation values and low heavy metal content, supported by technical data for diverse industrial applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

EDTA Acid has low solubility in water. Disodium and Tetrasodium salts are much more soluble and preferred for liquid formulations like shampoos or detergents.

It wraps around calcium and magnesium ions like a claw (chelate), preventing them from reacting with soap to form scum or with heat to form scale.

Standard EDTA is not readily biodegradable and can persist in the environment. Eco-friendly alternatives like GLDA or MGDA are used where biodegradability is critical.

It acts as a 'booster' for preservatives. By removing trace metals, it stops bacteria from growing and prevents the oils in the lotion from turning rancid.
