Features of the Product:​

ZEELCHEM 111 is recognized as a prominent supplier of ATMP (Aminotrimethylene phosphonic acid). This organophosphonate is highly effective in sequestering metal ions at stoichiometric concentrations and preventing the precipitation of metal salts at sub-stoichiometric levels. Its unique ability to deflocculate or disperse solid particles, coupled with its hydrolytic stability, makes it an ideal antiscalant for applications that require efficient management of metal ions.

ATMP finds its application in numerous chemical formulations, including industrial water treatment, oilfield operations, industrial cleaning products, the paper and pulp industry, textiles, metal treatment, electroplating, inks, and construction chemicals, where it acts as both a scale inhibitor and a complexing agent.

Applications:

• Aminotris (methylene phosphonic acid); ATMP is scale inhibitor and complexing agent which is applicable in various formulations of water treatment chemicals

• ATMP has better antiscalent performance than that of polyphosphate through its excellent chelating ability and low threshold inhibition.

• It can prevent scale formation in water systems. ATMP is the phosphonate analog of nitrilotriacetic acid

• ATMP is an effective scale inhibitor used in various industrial applications such as industrial water treatment and detergents.

• It further shows good corrosion inhibition properties in presence of zinc and other phosphates.

• ATMP can be also used as chelating agent in the textile industry.
