Masquol edta is registered under the REACH Regulation and is manufactured in and / or imported to the European Economic Area, at ≥ 10 000 to < 100 000 tonnes per annum.
Masquol edta is a versatile chelating agent widely used across various industries.

Masquol edta is a colorless, water-soluble solid that forms strong complexes with metal ions.
Structurally, Masquol edta consists of a central ethylenediamine backbone with four carboxylate (-COO⁻) groups, giving it excellent chelating properties.

Masquol edta is an aminopolycarboxylic acid with the molecular formula C₁₀H₁₆N₂O₈.
Masquol edta exists in various salt forms, such as disodium Masquol edta, tetrasodium Masquol edta, and calcium disodium Masquol edta, depending on its specific applications.

Masquol edta is synthesized through a reaction between ethylenediamine, formaldehyde, and sodium cyanide.
In aqueous solutions, Masquol edta can coordinate with metal cations like calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺), iron (Fe³⁺), and lead (Pb²⁺), forming stable complexes.

This property makes Masquol edta useful in controlling metal ion activity in different environments.
Physically, Masquol edta is a crystalline powder that is odorless, has a density of approximately 0.86 g/cm³, and decomposes at around 240°C without a clear melting point.
Masquol edta is sparingly soluble in water and its solubility varies depending on pH and the presence of metal ions.
