COMPOSITION CONTAINING A POLYSACCHARIDE HYBRID POLYMER AND METHODS OF CONTROLLING HARD WATER SCALE

摘要

A composition includes a polysaccharide hybrid polymer and 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid. In one embodiment, the polysaccharide hybrid polymer includes a polysaccharide residue present in an amount between approximately 30% to 80% by weight of the polysaccharide hybrid polymer and a residue of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or a combination thereof present in an amount between approximately 5% to 75% by weight of the polysaccharide hybrid polymer.
