Description

1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylic acid is a chemical compound that functions as a water treatment agent. This compound is soluble in water and can be used to remove contaminants such as nitrite and phosphate from wastewater. The compound binds to these ions and removes them from the solution by reacting with them. 1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylic acid has been shown to be thermodynamically stable at pH values of 6.5-8.5 and has a low solubility in human serum (0.04 mg/mL). It also reacts with magnesium salt, which increases its stability in water solutions. 1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylic acid is highly reactive with oxygen atoms and can form particle aggregates when exposed to air for long periods of time. These aggregates are composed of intramolecular hydrogen bonds between nitrogen atoms that are located on opposite
