coagulants, plural;
  1. A substance that causes blood or another liquid to coagulate

  1. an agent that produces coagulation
  2. (coagulants) Chemicals that cause very fine particles to clump together into larger particles. This makes it easier to separate the solids from the water by settling, skimming, draining or filtering.
  3. An organic polyelectrolyte used to gather (coagulate) suspended particles in the water.
  4. A material, such as alum, which will form a gelatinous precipitate in water, and cause the agglomeration of finely divided particles into larger particles which can then be removed by settling and/or filtration.
  5. A chemical compound used in water clarifiers. It causes fine particles to stick together to be more easily removed by the filter.
  6. An organic polyelectrolyte that helps the filter by clumping minute particles together so they can be trapped by the filter.
  7. A substance that, when introduced to water, induces particulates to lump together for easier removal.
  8. Coagulants are chemicals used to enhance sedimentation. Coagulants neutralise surface charges of repelling particules, allowing them to approach, attach and form clusters. The clusters are larger in size and heavier and thus more easy to settle and remove from the water. ...
  9. Rennet-like enzymes, also used commercially, are produced by selected fungi and bacteria.  See Rennet.
  10. A simple electrolyte, usually an inorganic salt containing a multivalent cation of iron, aluminum, or calcium, for example, FeCl3, FeCl2, Al2(SO4)3 CaO. Also, an inorganic acid or base which induces coagulation of suspended solids. See also flocculants.
  11. A chemical used in water treatment for coagulation. Coagulation is the treatment process that causes very small suspended particles to attract one another and form larger particles. Common examples of coagulants are aluminum sulfate and ferric sulfate.
  12. A chemical which causes dispersed colloidal particles to become destabilized thereby aiding in their removal during municipal water treatment.  Aluminum and iron salts are commonly used for this purpose.
  13. a chemical used to destabilize colloids in water, causing them to precipitate
  14. a substance that brings about coagulation, used to precipitate or float solids or other material out of water.
  15. The properties of a chemical used in the assemblage and precipitation of suspended material that may make the pool appear cloudy.
  16. The coagulant is normally a salt of iron or aluminium, introduced into water in conditions in which iron or aluminium hydroxide will precipitate.
  17. A substance which causes blood clotting.
  18. A polymeric chemical compound added to water to gather suspended particles together for filtration. SpaGuard Water Clarifier is a coagulant.
  19. Chemical added to water to cause formation of flocs that adsorb, entrap or otherwise bring together suspended matter defined as colloidal. Used to remove turbidity, bacteria, color and other finely divided matter from water.
