Laundry & Detergents

The Codex Phosphonates used in both consumer and institutional laundry detergents applications. In consumer laundry products, Codex phosphonates are used for special functions such as stain removal, bleach stabilization and anti-encrustation. They have become particularly valuable in non-phosphate laundry products where high carbonate levels otherwise lead to encrustation problems.

Codex phosphonates should also be considered for addition to I&I laundry detergents. Sizable performance boosts in relatively simple liquid laundry detergents can be obtained through the use of relatively low levels of Codex phosphonates.

One way of controlling calcium carbonate scaling is through the use of a scale inhibitor, such as Codex. The phosphonates may also be useful against some other commonly encountered scales, such as strontium salts and silica.
