What Is Tetrasodium Pyrene-1,3,6,8-tetrasulfonate (PTSA)?
PTSA here means tetrasodium pyrene-1,3,6,8-tetrasulfonate, CAS 59572-10-0, a fluorescent tracer added to water-treatment products so that their concentration can be measured online with a fluorometer. It is not p-toluenesulfonic acid, which shares the abbreviation.
The supply specification sets assay by HPLC at ≥98%, water at ≤0.5% and insoluble matter at ≤0.1%. Formula and molecular weight are given on an anhydrous tetrasodium-salt basis.
Calibrate the fluorometer with the actual water and treatment package, since background fluorescence and adsorption affect the reading. The tracer shows how much product is in the system, not how well it performs. It is not regulated as dangerous goods; avoid skin, eye and respiratory contact with the powder.
As a PTSA fluorescent tracer supplier and exporter in China, ZXCHEM packs the light yellow to yellow-green powder in 25 kg fibre drums.
