EDTMPA is widely used as a scale inhibitor in water treatment processes, particularly in industrial cooling systems and boilers, where it effectively prevents the formation of calcium and magnesium scales. It is also employed in the oil and gas industry for well stimulation and as a chelating agent to control metal ions in drilling fluids. In the textile industry, EDTMPA acts as a stabilizer for hydrogen peroxide during bleaching processes, ensuring efficient and uniform results. Additionally, it is utilized in detergents and cleaning agents to enhance their performance by sequestering metal ions that can interfere with cleaning efficiency. In the paper industry, it helps control scale formation and improves process efficiency. In agriculture, it serves as a micronutrient fertilizer additive, improving the availability of essential nutrients like iron and zinc to plants. Its chelating properties also make it valuable in medical and pharmaceutical applications for metal detoxification, including treatment of iron overload conditions, and as a stabilizing agent in formulations.
