well they are what is in most detergents, so yes, they do work to stop limescale.
They were a large part of washing powder but they pollute rivers and cause algae blooms so there are restrictions on them now.
A phosphate worse than death? I thought we were trying to stop putting phosphates down into the drains as its a bit like a fertiliser when it combines with other stuff. Brian
