What are the properties and characteristics of sodium hexametaphosphate?

sodium hexametaphosphate has various formulations depending on the nature and characteristics of the laundry and is used for emulsification, solubilization, wetting, penetration, dispersion, etc. of the surfactant, and its properties are supplemented by other organic or inorganic additives. It achieves the goal of cleaning and removing grease and rust, as well as disinfecting and protecting the surface layer. The other is to use the derivative properties of surfactants as industrial additives, such as lubrication, softness, catalysis, sterilization, antistatic, plasticizing, defoaming, deodorization, thickening, pour point depressing, rust prevention, waterproof, oil proofing , anti-caking, flotation, phase transfer catalysis, etc., used in the electronics industry, resistance materials, polymerization, genetic engineering, biotechnology, etc., and many applications have been continuously developed.

Sodium hexametaphosphate is mainly used as a high-efficiency softener for cooling water treatment of power stations, dispersants, high-temperature binders, boilers, soft water, locomotives and chemical fertilizer plants, detergent additives, control or preservative agents, cement hardening accelerators, streptomycin purifiers. Cleaning agent for fiber industry and bleaching and dyeing industry. Used as flotation agent in mineral processing industry. Used as a sedative in medicine. In the petroleum industry, it is used to control the corrosion of drilling pipelines and to control the viscosity of mud when drilling oil. It is also used in textile printing, leather, paper, color film, soil analysis, radiochemistry, analytical chemistry and other departments.

In addition to general anionic, nonionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactants, sodium hexametaphosphate has also developed functional surfactants, such as reactive surfactants, to meet the needs of emulsion polymerization in the production of synthetic rubber, synthetic resin and coatings. Additives, dissociable surfactants, and special surfactants containing silicon, fluorine, boron, etc. are widely used in various fields.

Sodium hexametaphosphate is widely used, and its application has penetrated into almost all industrial fields, making it difficult to find out which industry has nothing to do with surfactant. Surfactants play a final role in many industries, and as the most important additives, they can greatly improve the production process and product performance. It is no exaggeration to say that surfactants are the most important chemical additives in today's chemical industry, so they are called " industrial monosodium glutamate".
