Product Application
1
Concrete Admixture: Used as a water-reducing agent and retarder. It improves workability, reduces slump loss, and enhances later strength. It can extend initial setting times significantly for pumped, high-strength, or mass concrete.
2
Textile Printing & Dyeing: Functions as a reducing agent, complexing agent, dyeing aid, and pH regulator.
3
Surface Cleaning: Ideal for metal cleaning before plating (chrome, tin, nickel) and cleaning glass surfaces to remove scaling and rust residue.
4
Water Quality Stabilizer: Provides excellent corrosion and scale inhibition for circulating cooling water systems and boilers.
