Interaction between epsomite crystals and organic additives

A number of phosphonates and carboxylates were tested as potential crystallization inhibitors for epsomite (MgSO4ยท7H 2O). Epsomite nucleation is strongly inhibited in the presence of amino tri(methylene phosphonic acid) (ATMP), diethylenetriaminepentakis (methylphosphonic acid) (DTPMP), and poly(acr...
