Scale Preventive Boiler Water Chemical

Scale preventive chemicals for boiler water include:

Phosphate-based: Bind calcium and magnesium to prevent scale.
Polymer-based Dispersants: Disperse particles to avoid scaling.
Chelating Agents: Bind minerals to stop scale formation.
Sodium Hexametaphosphate: Sequesters hardness-causing minerals.

Scale preventive chemicals for boiler water are used to prevent the buildup of mineral deposits (scale) on boiler surfaces, which can reduce efficiency and damage the system. Common scale preventives include:

Phosphate-based Chemicals: These help prevent scale by binding calcium and magnesium, keeping them in solution.
Polymer-based Dispersants: These chemicals prevent scale formation by dispersing suspended particles in the water.
Chelating Agents: They bind to scale-forming minerals like calcium and magnesium, preventing them from depositing on surfaces.
Sodium Hexametaphosphate: Used to prevent scale in both low- and high-pressure boilers by sequestering hardness-causing minerals.
