Bis(hexamethylene triamine penta(methylene phosphonic acid)) (CAS 34690-00-1) is an organophosphonic acid (aminophosphonate). Documented uses include service as an anti-scaling agent and corrosion inhibitor, with industrial reporting in oil and gas drilling, extraction, and chemical manufacturing. Its multiple phosphonate groups complex scale-forming metal cations to keep them in solution.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is BHMTPMPA used for?
Bis(hexamethylene triamine penta(methylene phosphonic acid)) (CAS 34690-00-1) is an organophosphonic acid (aminophosphonate). It is used as a scale inhibitor and corrosion inhibitor in industrial water systems and is reported in oil and gas drilling and extraction operations.
How does BHMTPMPA inhibit scale?
Its multiple phosphonate groups complex (sequester) scale-forming metal cations such as calcium, keeping them in solution and preventing mineral scale deposition. This makes it effective in recirculating and process water at low dosages and across a wide temperature range.
What is the CAS number, formula, and HS code for BHMTPMPA?
BHMTPMPA is CAS 34690-00-1, molecular formula C17H44N3O15P5. It classifies under HS 2931.49 (non-halogenated organo-phosphorus derivatives, other); we confirm the destination-specific code on the quote.
How is BHMTPMPA supplied in bulk and what concentrations are available?
We supply BHMTPMPA to water-treatment and oilfield buyers in bulk packaging such as drums and totes. The supplied form and active concentration, along with MOQ, are confirmed per order; request a bulk quote with your target specification and volume.
Can you provide a CoA and SDS for BHMTPMPA?
Yes. A Certificate of Analysis and Safety Data Sheet are available with each shipment. Specify your application (cooling water, process water, or oilfield) when requesting documentation.
