Use | Green chelating agent dicarboxymethyl alanine trisodium (MGDA). As a chelating agent, Na3 has good toxicological safety and stable biodegradability. MGDA is a metal ion chelating agent, which can chelate metal ions to form stable soluble complexes. Na3 can be widely used in the pH range to produce synergistic effects with fungicides. Na3 can be used as a substitute for phosphate, NTA, EDTA, citrate and other chelating agents in detergents. |
decontamination performance | dicarboxymethyl alanine trisodium (MGDA) is a stabilizer of sodium perborate and sodium percarbonate, it is an effective builder in non-phosphate detergent formulations. MGDA was demonstrated to have high efficiency bleaching and recalcitrant strain removal capabilities in commercial phosphorus-free dishwashing formulations. MGDA has excellent cleaning ability in high-efficiency washing powders, laundry detergents and soap cleaners (e. G. Soap). The addition of MGDA to various soaps has the effect of preventing rancidity, discoloration and soil precipitation. MGDA is used as a detergent and scale inhibitor to prevent scale formation and soften water. It can also decompose metal salts and hydroxides to clean insoluble salt scale in various industries. |
