Physicochemical Property of Sodium tripolyphosphate powder
Sodium tripolyphosphate powder is white sodium tripolyphosphate powder with good fluidity, relative molecular weight 367.86 and melting point 622℃. It is easily soluble in water and its aqueous solution is alkaline.
Production methodprocess of Sodium tripolyphosphate powder
The traditional preparation method of sodium tripolyphosphate is to neutralize the phosphoric acid with the mass fraction of H3PO4 of 75% in the soda ash suspension to obtain a neutral slurry with Na/P of 5∶3, which is kept warm at 70℃ ~ 90℃. Then the slurry was sprayed into the polymerization furnace, dehydrated at high temperature, and condensed into Sodium tripolyphosphate powder at about 400℃.
FAQ.
Q: Is it safe in my skincare products?
A: At approved levels (<0.6%), yes. Those with sensitive skin may prefer preservative-free options.
Q: Does it appear on "clean beauty" lists?
A: Typically no - considered a synthetic preservative by EWG (score 3-5).
Q: How does it compare to natural preservatives?
A: More effective than rosemary extract but less so than phenoxyethanol.
Q: Should I avoid it in foods?
A: At regulated levels, no significant risk for most consumers.
