POLYMAN 1240-A is a carboxylic-sulfonate ter-polymer used for various water treatment and industrial
applications. It is highly effective as Dispersant and Scale Inhibitor in Industrial Water Treatment and
Cooling Water Treatment as well as in all types of water based formulations. The product POLYMAN
1240-A being a low molecular weight polymer has good anti-gelling capacity and so has best calcium
trapping ability working over wide range of pH, high hardness and temperature without precipitation.
Strong acidic functional group like sulfonic acid plays important role in imparting more negative charge on
iron oxide particles. It is well known that higher the negative charge imparted on the particles, stronger
the repulsive force between the charged particles and hence better dispersant. It is suggested that the
substitution of carboxylic group with stronger acidic and bulkier groups like sulfonic acid in carboxylic
polymer markedly improves the dispersant power of the polymer.
