chelants

English to German Tech/Engineering Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng SDS
Control of the re-precipitation of iron and the pH, as the acid is spent, can be achieved by the sequestration by organic chelants and the reduction to soluble ferrous iron [Gewanter, Herman L. et al].

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Reference:

Chelatligand vs. Chelat

Wenn ein Chelatligand ein Metallion "in die Zange nimmt", bilden beide zusammen den Chelatkomplex = das Chelat.
Ein "chelant" ist kein Chelatkomplex, sondern ein Chelatligand.

deutsch:
Chelatligand oder Chelator (weitere Synonyme: Chelatbildner, Chelon, Komplexon, Sequestrierungsmittel, Maskierungsmittel)
siehe: http://flexikon.doccheck.com/Chelatbildner und http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelatkomplexe

englisch:
