Synthesis routes
There are two common process routes for synthesizing salts of polyaspartic acid.
- First method, food grade L-aspartic acid is used as the main raw material. This route was usually chosen for drinking water treatment chemical (Na-PASP scale inhibitor), food grade potassium polyaspartate.
- The other method, maleic anhydride is used as the main raw material. Cooling water treatment grade product is usually produced by this method.
In agriculture, potassium polyaspartate can be used as anti scale deposit and dispersant in irrigation system, and raw material for saline soil improver, fertilizer potentiator. Potassium polyaspartate can promote root growth and enhance stress resistance.
Potassium polyaspartate 45% solution is usually used in agriculture.
