Key Features of Using Zeolite A in Detergent Products:
Water Softening: Zeolite A helps in softening the water used for rinsing by reducing the concentration of calcium and magnesium. Alkali metals such as sodium or potassium, which are bound to the zeolite, exchange ions with calcium and magnesium, which are the metal ions responsible for water hardness.
Effective Builder: Zeolite A acts as an effective builder, enhancing the properties of detergents. It is highly suitable for compact powders and products designed for color washing. It is widely recognized for its environmental and consumer acceptance, particularly in relation to eutrophication (the phenomenon of excessive nutrients in water that leads to overgrowth of aquatic plants).
