HEDP (etidronic acid 60%) neutralisation

(1/3) > >>

Ondex:
Hello!
Please help me with HEDP 60% neutralisation?
I need to obtaint tetrasodium etidronate, salt with high stability.
Ths!!

AWK:
This is a quite simple neutralization reaction with NaOH. Balance this reaction and do stoichiometrical calculations. Someone will check your calculations.

Ondex:
When i do by myself the neutralisation, next i am introduceing trilon b and after increase the ph with naoh to 13.5, the solution is not stable. In some days will see high cristal sediment.
But when i am using tetrasodium etidronate, neutralised in factory condition, by using the same quantity of trilon b and naoh, the sediment will not form.
What is a secred with hedp neutralisation? All the producers tell us that it is a trade secret!!
Thank you!

AWK:
A wrong stoichiometry of neutralization of both reagents. That why I asked you to show calculations.

Ondex:
C2H8O7P2 + 4 NaOH = C2H4Na4O7P2 + 4 H2O
For neutralisation of 20gr of HEDP (60%) i use 9.32 gr of NaOH.

Something is wrong?
