Buy Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP): A Versatile Compound for Various Industries
Sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), also known as sodium trifosphate or sodium triphosphate, is a salt of triphosphoric acid available as a white, free-flowing powder or granules. High-quality STPP contains no impurities, inclusions, or large conglomerates.
It is produced in two forms:
✔ Food grade (E451 additive)
✔ Technical grade
STPP is obtained through thermal processing of orthophosphoric acid and sodium trimetaphosphate. The technical variant is widely used in household chemicals, pulp and paper, textile, glass, ceramic, and chemical industries, as well as water treatment.

As a food additive, STPP serves multiple functions:
✅ Acidity regulator
✅ Stabilizer
✅ Antioxidant
✅ Color fixer
✅ Texture modifier
✅ Flour and bread improver
✅ Complexing agent

It is often combined with other phosphates and citrates, but can also be used independently. STPP is synthetically derived and poses no health risks when used within approved limits.
