What are the main applications of THPS 75%?

THPS is used as a biocidal active in industrial cooling and process-water treatment, oilfield injection and production-water systems, and paper-manufacturing process formulations. It is blended into site-specific treatment programs rather than applied directly as a complete program.

What pH and density can be expected for THPS 75%?

Commercial THPS 75% solution is generally acidic with a pH around 2.5-5.5 and density around 1.35-1.42 g/cm3. These solution properties affect dosing, materials compatibility and blending with other water-treatment chemicals.

Why is active content important for THPS solution?

The solution is usually sold with at least 75% active THPS and a corresponding total-phosphorus level around 11-12%. Formulation dosage must be based on active THPS content rather than total liquid volume to achieve the intended microbial-control rate.

Is THPS the same as THPC or THP chloride?

No. THPS is the sulfate salt of the tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)phosphonium cation, while THPC is a chloride-based product and THP may refer to other phosphonium derivatives. The anion, active content, handling and compatibility can differ, so they should not be interchanged.
