Hydroxyethylamino-Di(Methylene Phosphonic Acid) (HEMPA)

CAS No. 5995-42-6 EINECS No. 227-833-4
Molecular Formula C4H13NO7P2 Molecular Weight 249
Structural Formula

HEMPA Structural Formula

Product Features

HEMPA is an organophosphoric acid, which exhibits excellent chelation, scale inhibition and corrosion inhibition. HEMPA is also compatible with methanol and water solution. When built together with other water treatment chemicals, HEMPA shows good synergistic effects. HEMPA is also an excellent dispersant for calcium-based deposits. HEMPA significantly improves the rinsing properties of washing and cleaning formulations. In high saline systems of oilfield applications, HEMPA can show its excellent calcium tolerance.
