ACUMER 2000

ACUMER 2000 polymer is a general purpose scale inhibitor as it is effective to inhibit precipitation of calcium carbonate, calcium oxalate, calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, and other. ACUMER 2000 copolymer combines two functional groups: strong acid (sulfonate) and weak acid (carboxylate) that provide optimal anti-scale/dispersant efficiency through the following different mechanisms: Solubility enhancement by threshold effect, which reduces precipitation of low solubility inorganic salts. Crystal modification, which deforms the growing inorganic salt crystal to give small, irregular, readilyfractured crystals that do not adhere well to surfaces and can be easily removed during cleaningoperations. Dispersing activity, which prevents precipitated crystals or other inorganic particules from agglomeratingand depositing on surfaces. The sulfonate groups increase the negative charge of the carboxylate groupsadsorbed onto particles and, by then, reinforce the repulsion between the particles, preventing them fromaggregating into larger particles which can settle and deposit on tube surfaces and low flow areas.
