I-N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)iminodiacetic acid (HEIDA) iyinhlanganisela yamakhemikhali esebenza kaningi emikhakheni ehlukahlukene.Kuyi-agent e-chelating, okusho ukuthi inamandla okubopha ama-ion ensimbi futhi yakhe ama-complexes azinzile.
Kukhemistri yokuhlaziya, i-HEIDA ivame ukusetshenziswa njenge-ejenti eyinkimbinkimbi kuma-titration kanye nokwehlukaniswa kokuhlaziya.Ingasetshenziselwa ukuhlanganisa ama-ion ensimbi, njenge-calcium, i-magnesium, nensimbi, futhi ngaleyo ndlela ivimbele ukuthi zingaphazamisi ukunemba kwezilinganiso zokuhlaziya.
I-HEIDA iphinde ithole ukusetshenziswa embonini yezemithi, ikakhulukazi ekwenziweni kwemithi ethile.Ingasetshenziswa njenge-stabilizer kanye ne-ejenti e-solubilizing yezidakamizwa ezingancibiliki kahle, okusiza ukuthuthukisa i-bioavailability nokusebenza kwayo.
Enye indawo esetshenziswa i-HEIDA isemkhakheni wokuhlanza amanzi angcolile kanye nokulungisa imvelo.Ingasetshenziswa njenge-ejenti yokuthungatha ukususa ukungcola kwensimbi esindayo emanzini noma emhlabathini, ngaleyo ndlela kunciphise ubuthi bazo futhi kukhuthaze imizamo yokulungisa.
Ukwengeza, i-HEIDA iye yasetshenziswa ekuhlanganisweni kwezinhlanganisela zokuxhumanisa kanye nezinhlaka ze-metal-organic (MOFs), ezinezinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlukahlukene ku-catalysis, ukugcinwa kwegesi, kanye nokuzwa.
