Sodium Hexametaphosphate | 68915-31-1

Description :

Overview of Sodium Hexametaphosphate

The sodium Hexametaphosphate is an industrial polyphosphate compound that is widely employed in industrial processes in which sequestration of dispersion, chelation, and prevention of scale are necessary. It is usually supplied in the form of a white powder, which is free-flowing orin  granules. It is appreciated for its exceptional liquid solubility, chelating capacity, and consistency when used in formulations designed for industry.

Sodium Hexametaphosphate plays an important role in the treatment of water as well as industrial processing and special chemical formulations in which the control of metal ions, as well as stability of the system, is crucial.

Applications of Sodium Hexametaphosphate

Water Treatment & Industrial Utilities

Sodium Hexametaphosphate is extensively used in water treatment to prevent scale formation and to sequester calcium and magnesium ions. It improves system efficiency and protects pipelines, boilers, and equipment. It is often evaluated alongside Sodium Gluconate and EDTA Disodium Salt in chelation systems.

Chemical Manufacturing & Industrial Processing

In the chemical industry, Sodium Hexametaphosphate is used to disperse and as a sequestrant agent to stabilise formulations and guarantee uniform quality. It ensures predictable processing and consistent batch output.

Detergents & Cleaning Formulations

The compound is extensively used in cleaning and industrial detergent formulations to increase the efficiency of cleaning by softening water and stopping the redeposition of minerals on the surface.

Ceramics, Pigments & Specialty Applications

The sodium Hexametaphosphate is also employed in ceramics, dispersions of pigments as well as in specialty industrial applications where better viscosity, dispersion control, and stability are needed.

Safety & Handling Guidelines

• Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area

• Keep containers tightly sealed to avoid moisture absorption

• Avoid inhalation of dust during handling

• Avoid direct contact with the eyes and prolonged skin exposure

• Use protective gloves, goggles, and suitable industrial clothing

• Maintain proper housekeeping to prevent dust accumulation

• Dispose of material and packaging according to local regulations
