Buyer’s Notes
Choosing the grade. These are low-molecular-weight (about 2,000-10,000) sodium polyacrylate or acrylic co-polymers. Use the powder form for dry detergents and the liquid (30-45% active) for liquids; confirm the form when you enquire.
What to check on the spec sheet. Active content, pH (6-8), molecular-weight range, density of the liquid, and dispersion performance in your formulation.
Handling and storage. Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Powder is hygroscopic; liquid should be kept from freezing.
Where it is used. Builder, anti-redeposition and scale-dispersant additive in detergents, dishwash and cleaning formulations.
