Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate for Sale
As a powerful green sequestrant, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate (GLDA) serves as the premier EDTA alternative and NTA-free replacement for modern formulations. It excels at stabilizing products by chelating metal ions (such as Ca2+ and Mg2+ across a wide pH range, making it indispensable for eco-conscious brands in the personal care, detergent, and industrial cleaning sectors.
- Superior Biodegradability: Unlike EDTA, GLDA is recognized as “readily biodegradable” (OECD 301B), minimizing environmental footprint and meeting Ecocert/COSMOS standards.
- High Solubility & Stability: Maintains excellent solubility even in high-concentration systems and remains stable at high temperatures and extreme pH levels (pH 2 to 14).
- Synergistic Boosting: Enhances the preservative efficacy of formulations, allowing for a reduction in traditional preservative dosage.
- Phosphate-Free & Sustainable: 100% bio-based origin, assisting manufacturers in achieving “Green” and “Phosphate-Free” labeling.
What is GLDA-Na4 Used for
- Personal Care & Cosmetics: Stabilizes color and fragrance in shampoos, lotions, and soaps; improves foam stability in hard water.
- Household & Cleaning: Used in laundry detergents, dishwashing tabs, and industrial surface cleaners to prevent scale formation.
- Water Treatment: Effective scale inhibitor and descaler for industrial boilers and cooling systems.
- Agriculture: High-efficiency micronutrient carrier for liquid fertilizers.
FAQs of GLDA 4Na
Our standard lead time for FCL orders (20ft/40ft) is 14–21 days from the receipt of the L/C or deposit. For smaller, palletized LCL orders, we often maintain a safety stock that can be dispatched within 5–7 working days. We also offer flexible shipping terms, including FOB, CIF, and DDP, to simplify your import process.
While the price per kilogram of GLDA is generally higher than EDTA, the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is often lower for B2B buyers. GLDA’s superior performance in high-pH environments and its synergy with preservatives can reduce the dosage of other expensive ingredients. Furthermore, using GLDA avoids the increasing “environmental taxes” and compliance costs associated with non-biodegradable chemicals in many regions.
Yes, we cater to specialized industrial requirements. While 47% liquid is the industry standard, we can discuss custom dilutions or specialized chemical blends. For packaging, we offer neutral labeling for distributors and a variety of containers, including 1.25MT IBC Totes and 250kg HDPE Drums.
Yes. Our GLDA is derived from natural L-glutamic acid and is classified as “readily biodegradable” according to OECD 301B standards. It meets the stringent requirements for Ecocert, COSMOS, and EU Ecolabel formulations. It is 100% phosphate-free and NTA-free, making it the ideal choice for companies looking to meet ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals.
Secure packaging in 250kg drums, or 1250kg IBC totes.
GLDA 47% Liquid: Should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. It is stable for at least 24 months in its original, sealed packaging.
