INITIA 585

INITIA® 585 is an enhanced polymaleic acid (empa) that improves upon the exceptional performance of traditional polymaleic acid (pma). INITIA® 585 is differentiated from traditional pma in that it is optimized for adsorption onto forming mineral scales such as calcium carbonate. This optimization and improved surface adsorption results in profound distortion of forming crystal habits and provides effective threshold inhibition in demanding applications. INITIA® 585 is designed for control of mineral scales such as calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, and barium sulfate in a wide variety of water treatment applications.

 

INITIA® 585 delivers…

  • exceptional stability in severe applications
  • best-in-class crystal habit modification
  • highly effective calcium carbonate inhibition
  • improved polymerization process
  • enhanced quality, low residual monomers

suggested applications

  • cooling towers
  • boilers (<400psi)
  • reverse osmosis
  • thermal desalination
  • mining
  • oilfield and natural gas
  • pulp and paper

INITIA 611

INITIA® 611 is a differentiated phosphinocarboxylic acid (PCA) dispersant for use in a wide range of applications. INITIA® 611 is differentiated from traditional PCA polymers in that it is optimized with a higher level of phosphino functional groups.  These phosphino functional groups are the basis for improved efficacy and thermal stability versus more basic polyacrylic acids. INITIA® 611 is an exceptional inhibitor for calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate and barium sulfate scales.  Additionally, INITIA® 611 is a highly effective dispersant and deposit control agent in boiler applications up to 500psi.

INITIA® 611 meets the criteria of 21 CFR 173.310 for boiler applications where steam may contact food and is Kosher Certified.

 

INITIA® 611 delivers…

  • highly effective control of calcium carbonate scale
  • exceptional control of calcium and barium sulfate scales
  • effective dispersion of inorganic such as iron oxides, hydroxyapatite, and sludge
  • outstanding thermal and hydrolytic stability
  • stability to oxidizing biocides

 

suggested applications

  • cooling towers
  • boilers (up to 500 psi)
  • industrial reverse osmosis
  • mining
  • oilfield and natural gas

INITIA 770

INITIA® 770 is high performance polymer for use in severe service applications where multiple types of mineral scales and foulants are observed. INITIA®  770 has primary performance for calcium carbonate control in stressed waters where high pH/alkalinity, high calcium hardness and/or elevated temperatures drive calcite saturation to above 200-250X and where LSI values approach or exceed 3.0. INITIA®  770 also has exceptional functionality for the control of calcium sulfate which makes the technology an excellent choice for systems where acid pH control is utilized and other process water applications where sulfate scale control is required.

INITIA® 770 provides secondary functionality for the control of low levels of phosphate and transition metals such as iron and zinc and dispersion of common inorganic particulates. This additional functionality allows INITIA® 770 to be utilized in systems where ortho-phosphate concentrations in recirculating water may reach up to 2-4ppm due to degradation of phosphonates, phosphorous containing biocides, or where low levels of phosphate are present in the make-up water. INITIA® 770 is highly stable in the presence of oxidizing biocides and can be utilized in systems where continuous residuals are maintained or in systems where aggressive shock feeding is employed.

 

INITIA® 770 delivers…

  • exceptional control of calcium carbonate in severe service applications
  • highly effective control of calcium sulfate
  • continued stability and efficacy in extreme conditions
  • stabilization of low levels of ortho-phosphate
  • control of low levels of transition metals such as iron and zinc

 

suggested applications

  • cooling towers
  • boilers (<400psi)
  • reverse osmosis
  • thermal desalination
  • mining
  • oilfield and natural gas
