Trisodium Citrate anhydrous is widely used in surface treatment processes as a chelating agent, effectively binding metal ions to remove oxides and impurities from metal surfaces. This ensures a clean, smooth substrate, which is critical for achieving high-quality coatings or finishes. In electroplating applications, it plays a key role in stabilizing metal ions within plating baths, promoting uniform metal deposition and consistent layer thickness. Its use helps improve the precision and reliability of electroplating processes, leading to superior surface finishes.
Key benefits of anhydrous Trisodium Citrate in Electroplating:
Lohtragon® B10, based on anhydrous Trisodium Citrate, is widely used in detergents and cleaning products due to its excellent chelating properties, effectively binding calcium and magnesium ions to soften water and boost cleaning performance. By preventing metal ions from interfering with surfactants, it helps maintain the efficiency of cleaning agents and ensures spotless results. Its ability to control pH levels contributes to stable and effective formulations across various cleaning applications. As a biodegradable alternative to phosphates, Trisodium Citrate supports eco-friendly product development without compromising cleaning power.
