Features of MGDA-Na3
-
Excellent biodegradability
MGDA-Na3 is a small molecule chelating agent with structure similar to NTA, but it is non-toxic and easily biodegradable, making it an environmentally friendly alternative. -
Superior cleaning performance
MGDA is particularly effective for stubborn stains including natural oils, sebum, blood stains, milk stains, ink stains, dust and protein in fabric detergents. -
Effective scale removal
MGDA can convert poorly soluble compounds into water-soluble substances, showing exceptional performance on inorganic deposits and old calcium stains. -
Phosphate-free solution for dishwashing
In commercial phosphorus-free dishwashing detergents, MGDA has proven effective against tough food stains like starch, protein, and tea stains. -
Safe for various systems
Unlike acidic cleaners, MGDA forms soluble complexes to remove calcium carbonate and phosphate scales without corrosion risks, making it suitable for closed systems.
