TAED enables effective washing even at low temperatures. It acts as an excellent bleach booster that is added to a detergent to increase whiteness and the removal of bleachable stains. The only limitation of TAED is that it is highly temperature dependent. It facilitates the heavy duty powder detergents and tablets to be more effective at lower temperatures. TAED is manufactured by reacting ethylenediamine with acetic acid and acetic anhydride with minimal environmental impact. Use of TAED as an ingredient in the detergent enables the bleaching system to release the active oxygen species, the peroxyacetic ion, to act at lower temperatures. It solves the washing and stain removal problems even when the wash water is cold. TAED is also used for dishwashing purposes, improving the bleaching action in textile industry, and improving the brightness of paper in the pulp &and paper sector. Detergent was the largest application segment for Tetraacetylethylenediamine in 2014 and is projected to hold the largest share by 2020.
