Scale inhibition performance of PBTCA

PBTCA, also known as Polycarboxylene Terehthalic Acid, is a commonly used scale inhibitor with excellent scale inhibition performance. The following are the main scale inhibition performance characteristics of PBTCA:

Calcium alkali stability: PBTCA can effectively inhibit the precipitation of calcium alkali salts in water, avoiding the formation of scale. It can form complexes with metal ions such as calcium and magnesium to prevent their crystallization into solid precipitates.

Corrosion inhibition performance: PBTCA has a certain corrosion inhibition effect on metal surfaces, which can reduce corrosion and rust generation on metal surfaces, and extend the service life of equipment and pipelines.

Temperature tolerance: PBTCA still has good scale inhibition performance at higher temperatures and can maintain stability in high-temperature environments.

Water solubility: PBTCA is soluble in water and easy to prepare and use. It can form stable complexes in water and form chelating structures with cations in the water.

Antioxidant properties: PBTCA has certain antioxidant properties, which can inhibit the generation of oxides in water, reduce oxidative corrosion and scale formation.

In summary, PBTCA, as a scale inhibitor, has good calcium alkali stability, corrosion inhibition performance, temperature tolerance, water solubility, and antioxidant properties. It is widely used in the fields of circulating cooling water systems, boiler water treatment, industrial water treatment, etc. in water treatment, effectively preventing the generation of scale and rust, and protecting the normal operation of equipment and pipelines.
