Acrylic Terpolymer is an advanced scale inhibitor. In Nepal, we supply premium Acrylic Terpolymer to support cooling water systems at hydroelectric plants, RO plants (industrial water treatment), and cement plants (Hetauda). Nepal's water sources (glacial melt, tributaries) with variable TDS, high silt load, and seasonal fluctuations (monsoon rains causing turbidity), requiring advanced scale control for RO membranes (for high-purity water for pharmaceutical and food processing) and for cooling systems at hydropower plants (where scaling in turbine cooling circuits can affect performance) creates scaling challenges.
As an indispensable advanced scale inhibitor for Nepal's industrial hub, it serves multiple water treatment facilities. For cooling towers (hydroelectric plants), RO plants (industrial pre-treatment), and cement plants (Hetauda), this product meets all quality standards while supporting Nepal's hydropower reliability and industrial water treatment.

Uses: This Acrylic Terpolymer is highly effective as a dispersant and scale inhibitor in various systems, including industrial water treatment and boiler water treatment. It efficiently inhibits the deposition of Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Silica, and Fe²+ salts, which are primarily responsible for heavy scale build-up on heat transfer surfaces. This low molecular weight polymer maintains high activity over a wide range of pH, high hardness, and extreme temperatures without precipitation.
Beyond its exceptional thermal stability, the product possesses strong resistance to oxidizing agents like chlorine, making it ideal for chlorinated water systems. As a non-phosphorous and non-foaming dispersant, it offers excellent environmental acceptability and aligns with green water treatment standards.
Advanced Features: It specifically controls or retards the precipitation of hard-to-remove silica scales, which are often a major challenge in high-cycle systems. It also stabilizes phosphates in the presence of zinc and other heavy metals, eliminating the need for additional polymers in the treatment program. It is perfectly suitable for use in cooling water systems, high-pressure boiler water, and Reverse Osmosis (RO) applications to enhance membrane life and efficiency.
