Product Description
EDTA-2Na is the disodium dihydrate salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. It is a water-soluble chelating reagent used to bind calcium, magnesium and many other metal ions in analytical, laboratory and formulation work.
The material is identified by CAS number 6381-92-6 and has a molecular weight of 372.24 g/mol. Because EDTA forms stable complexes with metal ions, it is widely used in complexometric titration, hardness determination, buffer preparation and metal-ion control.
EDTA-2Na is available in multiple grades, including analytical, ACS, laboratory, molecular-biology, pharmaceutical and technical grades. The product name alone does not confirm assay, grade, regulatory compliance, pack size or suitability for a specific regulated application. Contact Inaya Scientific for confirmation before ordering.

Product Overview
EDTA is a multidentate ligand, which means one EDTA molecule can attach to a metal ion through several binding sites. This produces a stable complex and reduces the amount of free metal ion available in the solution.
The disodium dihydrate form is commonly selected because it is easier to dissolve than free EDTA acid under many laboratory conditions. It is not the same product as anhydrous disodium EDTA, tetrasodium EDTA, calcium disodium EDTA or EDTA free acid.

Main Applications
- Complexometric titration of calcium, magnesium and other metal ions
- Total-hardness determination in water samples
- Preparation and standardisation of EDTA titrant solutions
- Laboratory buffer and reagent preparation
- Metal-ion masking and sequestration in analytical chemistry
- Control of metal-catalysed reactions in research formulations
- Molecular-biology buffers and nucleic-acid workflows when a suitable molecular-biology grade is supplied
- Cell-culture and biochemical work when the grade and protocol permit it
- Textile, detergent, cosmetic or industrial formulations only when the supplied grade meets the formulation requirement
- Educational, research and quality-control laboratories
Key Benefits
Effective Metal-Ion Chelation
EDTA-2Na forms stable complexes with many metal ions. This makes it useful when a procedure requires free calcium, magnesium or transition-metal ions to be measured, controlled or masked.
Useful for Water-Hardness Testing
A standardised EDTA solution is widely used in complexometric hardness titrations. The exact concentration, indicator, buffer and calculation must follow the selected analytical method.
More Convenient Than Free EDTA Acid
The disodium salt generally dissolves more readily in water than EDTA free acid. Solution preparation may still require pH adjustment, complete mixing and verification against the laboratory method.
Broad Laboratory Compatibility
Different grades are available for analytical, biological, pharmaceutical and industrial work. Selecting the correct grade allows the same chemical identity to serve very different applications without assuming that every batch is interchangeable.
Supports Controlled Reagent Preparation
Known chemical identity, molecular weight and batch documentation support accurate solution preparation. A valid Certificate of Analysis is important when assay correction or traceability is required.
Who Should Buy This Product?
- Analytical and quality-control laboratories
- Water-testing and environmental laboratories
- Textile, dyeing and industrial laboratories

- Industrial buyers requiring bulk chelating-agent supply
Usage and Handling Summary
Follow the current product label, Certificate of Analysis, Safety Data Sheet and the exact analytical or formulation procedure. The following guidance is general and does not replace a validated method.
- Confirm the required grade, assay, hydrate form and pack size before use.
- Wear appropriate laboratory personal protective equipment and work in a suitable ventilated area.
- Use a clean, calibrated balance to weigh the required amount.
- Transfer the powder carefully to reduce airborne dust.
- Add the material gradually to the specified water volume while stirring.
- Adjust pH only when the method requires it and with the specified reagent.
- Allow the material to dissolve completely before making the solution up to final volume.
- Standardise prepared EDTA titrant when the analytical method requires standardisation.
- Label prepared solutions with concentration, preparation date, preparer and storage condition.
- Close the original container tightly after removing material.
Handling Precautions
- Avoid creating or breathing chemical dust.
- Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged contact with skin.
- Wash exposed skin after handling.
- Keep the container tightly closed and protect the chemical from contamination and moisture.
- Do not use laboratory-grade product in food, medicine, cosmetics or regulated manufacturing unless the grade and documentation specifically permit that use.
- Dispose of residues and prepared solutions according to the Safety Data Sheet and applicable local requirements.
- Keep the chemical away from children and unauthorised personnel.
Limitations and Important Considerations
- The exact brand, grade, assay, impurity limits, pack size and origin were not provided.
- EDTA-2Na dihydrate is not interchangeable by weight with anhydrous disodium EDTA because their molecular weights differ.
- It is not the same as EDTA free acid, tetrasodium EDTA or calcium disodium EDTA.
- Suitability for molecular biology, pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic or medical use depends on the verified grade and documentation.
- Water-hardness titration requires the correct buffer, indicator, pH, standardisation and calculation procedure.
- The presence of competing metal ions or matrix components can affect analytical results.
- The final pH of an EDTA solution depends on concentration and pH adjustment; it should not be assumed from the powder name alone.
- Shelf life and storage conditions must be taken from the supplied label or Safety Data Sheet.
- Formal regulatory or accredited testing should use a validated method and traceable reagents.

What is the CAS number and molecular weight of EDTA-2Na dihydrate?
The CAS number is 6381-92-6 and the molecular weight is 372.24 g/mol. Its molecular formula is C10H14N2Na2O8 · 2H2O.
What is EDTA-2Na used for?
It is used for complexometric titration, water-hardness determination, buffer preparation and metal-ion sequestration. It is also used in biological and industrial work when the supplied grade meets the specific requirement.
Can EDTA-2Na be used to test water hardness?
Yes, a standardised EDTA solution is commonly used to titrate calcium and magnesium in water. The correct concentration, buffer, indicator, endpoint and calculation must follow the selected test method.
What is the difference between EDTA-2Na dihydrate and anhydrous EDTA-2Na?
The dihydrate contains two molecules of crystallisation water, while the anhydrous form does not. Their molecular weights differ, so they cannot be substituted gram for gram without recalculation.
