Chemical name:Dihydrocalcium Phosphate, Monocalcium Phosphate Anhydrous
Molecular formula:Ca(H2PO4)2
Molecular Weight:Ca(H2PO4)2
White powder; specific gravity: 2.220; it is soluble in Hydrochloric Acid and Nitric Acid; slightly soluble in water (1.8% at 30℃); it contains free Phosphoric Acid and has the character of hygroscopicity. Its water solution is acidic.
In food industry, it is used as leavening agent, dough regulator, buffer, modifier, solidification agent, nutritional supplement, chelating agent, e.g., leavening agent for bake and cake; assistant fermentation agent and buffer for bread and biscuit; pectin curing agent, yeast food, modifier in meat product. When applied in fermentation, it can increase the fermentation capacity.

White and odorless powder; it is soluble in diluted Hydrochloric Acid, Nitric Acid and Acetic Acid; slightly soluble in water but insoluble in Ethanol; stable in air; its relative density is: 2.32.
Purpose
In feed industry, it is used to supply calcium and phosphate for dairy and also it is used in food industry as leavening agent, dough modifier, buffer, nutritional supplement, emulsifier, and stabilizer e.g. it is applied as leavening agent for flour, cake, pastry, bakery, as quality modifier for bread, and fried food. Also be applied in biscuit, milk powder, drinks, ice cream as nutrient supplement or quality improver. In pharmaceutical industry, it is often used as an additive in the producing of Calcium Tablet or other tablets. In daily chemical industry-toothpaste, it is used as friction agent.
