In today’s world, industries from detergents to personal care are facing a pressing challenge: how to maintain high performance while meeting stringent environmental standards. Traditional chelating agents like EDTA and NTA, once industry staples, now face scrutiny due to their poor biodegradability and potential ecological risks. The market is shifting, and the future belongs to green alternatives.

Meet MGDA (Tetrasodium Methylglycinediacetate)—a powerful, readily biodegradable chelating agent that doesn’t force you to choose between efficiency and environmental responsibility. As a leader in sustainable chemical solutions, YuanLian Chemical is proud to offer high-purity MGDA to empower your next-generation products.


Why MGDA is Your Smartest Choice

MGDA isn’t just an alternative; it’s an upgrade. Derived from natural, renewable raw materials, it combines outstanding functionality with an excellent environmental profile.

  • Superior Chelating Power: MGDA effectively binds to and stabilizes metal ions like calcium, magnesium, and iron. With a high chelation capacity (e.g., 330 mg/g for Ca²⁺ and 150 mg/g for Fe³⁺), it enhances cleaning and stabilizing performance far beyond many conventional options.

  • Readily Biodegradable: Unlike persistent chemicals, MGDA breaks down quickly in the environment, with a degradation rate of >80% in 28 days, complying with OECD 301D standards. This makes it the ideal choice for products bearing eco-labels.

  • Broad Compatibility & Stability: It remains effective across a wide pH range (3-12) and is stable at high temperatures (up to 120°C), making it exceptionally versatile for various industrial processes and formulations.

  • Safe and Gentle: MGDA is non-toxic and non-irritating to skin and eyes, allowing for its safe use in everything from industrial cleaners to personal care products like shampoos and liquid soaps.

Versatile Applications Across Industries

MGDA's unique properties make it a powerful ingredient in numerous sectors:

  • ✔ Detergents & Cleaners: Significantly boosts the performance of laundry detergents, automatic dishwashing liquids, and hard surface cleaners. It improves stain removal (especially for blood, milk, and ink

), prevents scale formation, and stabilizes bleaches and enzymes.

  • ✔ Personal Care: Acts as a reliable and gentle stabilizer in shampoos, creams, and liquid soaps, protecting the formulation from discoloration and spoilage caused by trace metals.

  • ✔ Textile & Paper Processing: Serves as an effective agent in peroxide bleaching, helping to maintain fabric quality and brighten pulp while minimizing environmental impact.

  • ✔ Water Treatment: Functions as an efficient scale inhibitor and cleaning agent in industrial water systems, capable of dissolving tough salts and hydroxides.
