Hydrolysed Polymaleic Anhydride Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Hydrolyzed Polymaleic Anhydride
- HPMA
Hydrolysed polymaleic anhydride supplier for industrial water-treatment and formulation buyers in Malaysia. Commonly abbreviated HPMA and written hydrolyzed polymaleic anhydride in American spelling, it is an oligomeric polymer used for mineral-scale inhibition and particulate dispersancy.
Commercial HPMA is supplied as an aqueous solution selected by active-solids content, pH, viscosity, colour and compatibility with the complete formulation. Technical water-treatment, membrane-formulation and oilfield-formulation grades share the same polymer identity but can carry different solution and impurity requirements.
Formulators use hydrolysed polymaleic anhydride in cooling-water, boiler-water, reverse-osmosis, desalination and oilfield scale-control products, as well as selected industrial cleaners and mineral-processing circuits. It is not polyacrylic acid, PBTC or hydroxypropyl methacrylate, despite overlaps in function or abbreviation.
Send the required solution specification, application or water-system details, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation, while dosage and system suitability remain formulation-specific.
- Grade
- technical aqueous solution, membrane-formulation grade, oilfield-formulation grade
- Appearance
- clear pale yellow to amber aqueous solution
HPMA grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Technical grade HPMA aqueous solution | clear pale yellow to amber aqueous solution | Active-solids, pH and viscosity range confirmed against the specification | Scale inhibition and dispersancy in cooling-water, boiler-water and general industrial water-treatment formulations. | A 250 kg option is known; final liquid container type and availability are confirmed with the quotation. |
| Membrane-formulation HPMA solution | filtered aqueous solution | Active-solids, colour, pH and compatibility specification confirmed with the enquiry | Reverse-osmosis and desalination antiscalant formulation where controlled solution quality and compatibility with the complete blend are required. | Confirm drum, IBC or other liquid packing with the quotation. |
| Oilfield-formulation HPMA solution | aqueous solution | Active-solids and impurity limits selected against the formulation requirement | Oilfield and process-water scale-control formulations evaluated for the target brine chemistry, temperature and mineral deposits. | Confirm the required liquid pack format with the quotation. |

Safety and handling
Keep containers closed in a cool, dry, ventilated area and protect the solution from contamination and incompatible materials. Follow the safety information for the quoted active-solids grade. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
Common questions about HPMA
What does HPMA mean in water treatment?
In this page and in water-treatment procurement, HPMA means hydrolysed polymaleic anhydride. The full name should accompany the abbreviation because HPMA can also denote unrelated chemicals in other industries.
Is hydrolysed polymaleic anhydride the same as hydroxypropyl methacrylate?
No. They can share the abbreviation HPMA, but hydrolysed polymaleic anhydride is a polymeric water-treatment additive and hydroxypropyl methacrylate is a reactive monomer. Use the full chemical name on the enquiry.
Is HPMA the same as polyacrylic acid or PBTC?
No. Hydrolysed polymaleic anhydride, polyacrylic acid and PBTC are separate scale-control chemistries. Their active-solids basis, molecular character and performance in a formulation must be evaluated individually.
Which HPMA solution grade should I request?
State the active-solids, pH, viscosity and colour limits together with the intended cooling, boiler, membrane or oilfield application. Include the water chemistry or current blend specification when matching an established formulation.
Can a 250 kg HPMA pack be quoted?
A 250 kg option is present in the sanitised pack evidence. Current availability, liquid container type and alternative packing are confirmed for the selected solution grade in the quotation.
What information is needed for an HPMA price enquiry?
Provide the full product name, active-solids and solution specification, application, quantity and delivery location. Mention documentation and packing requirements so the offer covers the complete request.
