Chemical compound
DTPMP or diethylenetriamine penta(methylene phosphonic acid) is a phosphonic acid. It has chelating and anti corrosion properties.
Properties
DTPMP is normally delivered as salts, because the acid form has very limited solubility in water and tends to crystallize in concentrated aqueous solutions. It is a nitrogenous organic polyphosphonic acid. It shows very good inhibition of the precipitation of barium sulfate (BaSO4). At high alkali and high temperature (above 210 °C) environments DTPMPA has better scale and corrosion inhibition effect than other phosphonates.
Applications
- Detergents and cleaning agents
- Water treatment
- Scaling inhibitor
- Chelating agent
- Deflocculation agent / settling retarder
- Anti corrosion agent
