DTPA Penta Sodium Salt Liquid (DTPA Liquid)

DTPA Penta Sodium Salt Liquid, commonly referred to as DTPA Liquid, is a chelating agent widely used in industries for its ability to bind and sequester metal ions like calcium, magnesium, iron, and copper. It is the liquid form of Diethylene Triamine Pentaacetic Acid (DTPA) neutralized with sodium, making it water-soluble, highly stable, and effective across various pH ranges.

In Ahmedabad, DTPA Liquid is produced by multiple chemical manufacturers and exporters for applications in agriculture, watertreatment, textiles, pulp & paper, pharmaceuticals, and industrial cleaning.

Applications of DTPA Liquid

Industry	Application
Agriculture	Micronutrient formulation (chelates of Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu) for foliar sprays
Water Treatment	Sequesters metal ions in water softening and scale prevention
Textile Industry	Prevents metal-based dye interference in dye baths
Detergent Industry	Enhances cleaning by binding hard water minerals
Cosmetics	Stabilizes formulas by preventing metal-catalyzed oxidation
Pulp & Paper	Prevents metal-caused pulp yellowing and improves bleaching
Electroplating	Metal ion complexing for uniform coating
Pharmaceuticals	Chelating agent in formulations and purification processes
Oilfield Applications	Used in drilling fluids for metal control

Features with Uses
