Hydrolyzed Polymaleic Anhydride (HPMA) is an advanced, water-soluble polymer engineered for a wide range of industrial applications. As a low molecular weight organic compound, HPMA is synthesized through the precise hydrolysis of polymaleic anhydride, resulting in enhanced dispersing, scale-inhibiting, and sequestering properties. This versatile chemical is acclaimed for its exceptional ability to prevent the formation of scale in water systems, making it an indispensable choice for industries such as water treatment, textile, and paper manufacturing. HPMA''s robust stability in high-temperature environments and compatibility with various water types ensures efficient performance in both acidic and alkaline conditions. Its eco-friendly profile and superior anti-scale capabilities contribute to operational efficiency by minimizing maintenance and prolonging equipment lifespan. Whether employed as a corrosion inhibitor or a dispersant, Hydrolyzed Polymaleic Anhydride stands as a reliable solution for optimizing processes where clarity, cleanliness, and system integrity are critical.
