Description

Sodium abietate is a sodium salt of abietic acid, a glycol ether. It is used as an additive in the production of polymers and plastics to improve their stability and air-entraining properties. Sodium abietate also has antifungal activity against endoparasites such as erythrocytes and helminths, and can be used as a chemical preservative or disinfectant. The particle size of sodium abietate is small enough to be used in water treatment systems at high concentrations, where it reacts with hydrochloric acid to form salt crystals. These crystals then react with potassium dichromate to produce chlorine gas, which kills bacteria.
