CAS 60-00-4 — EDTA (Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid)
EDTA (Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid) is a versatile chelating agent widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and water treatment to bind metal ions and prevent precipitation or unwanted reactions. It appears as a white, odorless crystalline powder that is only sparingly soluble in water (about 0.5 g/L at 25 °C) and is essential for stabilizing solutions, enhancing drug efficacy, and controlling hardness in industrial processes. EDTA has a CAS number of 60-00-4, a molecular formula of (HO2CCH2)2NCH2CH2N(CH2CO2H)2, and a molecular weight of 292.24. It is stored at ambient conditions and carries a signal word of "Warning" for safety. Molekula supplies EDTA from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
