TP25-14 Learning from History ..... Use of BiocidesThe use of synthetic polymers for mineral scale control in water treatment has evolved significantly over the past 50 years, with most advancements occurring early in their widespread adoption. Initially, polymers were primarily composed of carboxylate functionalities, such as polyacrylic, polymethacrylic, and polymaleic acids and their salts. In the 1970s, copolymers incorporating sulfonated and non ionic groups were introduced. This innovation
