Phosphonates

Aquapharm Specialty Chemicals offers a wide range of organophosphonates which exhibit multifunctional properties like threshold inhibition sequestration of metal ions and de-flocculation. In conjunction with their excellent hydrolytic and thermal stability, these properties make phosphonates superior to other sequestering agents in cost-effectiveness and performance. High stability constants of phosphonates with heavy metals, ensures improved stabilization of the active bleach and assists in the removal of stains caused by heavy metal-containing liquids like tea, coffee, red wine, etc. These phosphonates are utilized in multiple industries, such as in Home and Personal care, Industrial & Institutional scenarios, Industrial water treatment, Desalination plants, Oil & Gas, Pulp & Paper manufacturing, Geothermal industries, Mining, and Textile industries – where water is essential in the processes. We regularly provide products which meet customer requirements and comply with the highest safety, quality & environmental standards.
