  • Acid Value: 140–150 mgKOH/g
  • pH (5% sol.): 1–3
  • Color: ≤40 APHA
  • Solubility: Miscible with organic solvents, insoluble in water

Applications:

  • Hydrometallurgy: Extracts and separates rare and non-ferrous metals.
  • Coatings: Improves adhesion and corrosion resistance on metal substrates.
  • Lubricants: Acts as an anti-wear and antioxidant additive.

Why It’s High-Performance:
P204 offers exceptional selectivity for metal ions while forming stable phosphate–metal complexes. In coatings, it enhances bonding between organic resins and metal surfaces.

Donghong Chemical’s P204 is produced under controlled esterification, ensuring low impurities and consistent acidity for efficient extraction and coating applications.
