RO Antiscalant
POLYSHIELD 400 is a proven performer against the following scalants: calcium carbonate, calcium
sulphate, barium sulphate, strontium sulphate, calcium fluoride, silica and iron.
POLYSHIELD 400 reduces the risk of scaling and eliminates the use of hazardous acids, resulting
in efficient plant operation with the highest possible conversion rate. It is therefore a more cost-
effective alternative for membrane protection than pH control or ion exchange softening.
POLYSHIELD 400 is a super-threshold agent able to stabilise a wide range of supersaturated salt
solutions, thereby preventing precipitation on the membrane surface. This property allows engineers
to design RO systems to successfully operate at higher recoveries than systems that do not utilise this
technology. Equipment manufacturers that design systems to operate at higher recoveries have a
significant advantage over their competitors because they can offer the end user benefits such as:
