EDTA chelating agent industrial grade. Fine white powder with a minimum purity of 99%. Highly effective chelating agent that forms stable complexes with metals of octahedral coordination, acting as a hexadentate ligand. Ideal for capturing metallic ions of micronutrients such as iron, zinc, and manganese, preventing their precipitation and promoting their availability for plant absorption. Applications: agrochemicals, textile industry, and pulp/paper processes. Properties: pH 11.0–13.0 (1% solution), loss on drying 8.0–12.0%. CAS 13235-36-4. Also known as tetrasodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid dihydrate. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.

Potassium iodate USP grade stabilizer and oxidizing agent. Fine white powder with 99.0–101.0% purity. Stable compound, highly soluble in water, mainly used in salt iodization to prevent iodine deficiency. Also serves as an additive in animal feed, wheat flour treatment, and dough conditioners, as well as in analytical and biocidal applications such as antiseptics. Applications: human and animal nutrition, baking, analytical reagent, oxidizing agent, redox titrations, and antiseptic formulations. Properties: pH 5.0–8.0 (5% solution), iodine content 58.75–59.93%, max. 20 ppm iodide, max. 100 ppm chlorate, max. 2.0 ppm arsenic, max. 10.0 ppm cadmium, max. 4.0 ppm lead, and max. 0.1 ppm mercury. Also known as E917. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.
