Properties

PASP is readily biodegradable, non-phosphorus and non-nitrogen-polluting, effective over a wide temperature and pH range, and also works as a fertilizer-efficiency and scale-control agent in agriculture.

Uses

Green cooling-water and RO antiscalant, oilfield scale control, and where discharge limits restrict phosphonates. Pairs with PESA for phosphorus-free programs.

Frequently asked questions

What is PASP used for?

As a biodegradable, phosphorus-free scale and corrosion inhibitor and dispersant in cooling water, RO and oilfield systems.

Is polyaspartic acid environmentally friendly?

Yes — PASP is readily biodegradable and phosphorus-free, making it a 'green' alternative to phosphonate antiscalants.
