Industrial Uses

1. Food & Healthcare Ingredients 

  • Buffering and Emulsifying Agent: Used as a food additive (E340) to regulate pH and improve texture in processed foods. Helps maintain moisture and stability in powdered creamers, cheese spreads, and sauces. Prevents coagulation in dairy applications and supports even nutrient dispersion.
  • Nutrient and Mineral Supplement: Acts as a potassium and phosphorus source in sports drinks, dietary supplements, and nutritional powders. Improves electrolyte balance and supports muscle function and energy metabolism. Used in infant formula, energy drinks, and fortified foods.

2. Pharmaceuticals

  • Buffer and Excipient in Drug Formulation: Applied in injectable and oral drug formulations to stabilize pH. Used as an excipient in tablets and capsules due to its low toxicity and chemical compatibility. Helps in the controlled release of active pharmaceutical ingredients.

3. Water Treatments

  • Corrosion Inhibitor and pH Stabilizer: Used in boiler water and cooling tower systems to control scaling and corrosion. Buffers pH and prevents precipitation of metal ions in recirculating water. Suitable for RO (reverse osmosis) water systems and municipal water treatment plants.

4. Cleaning & Disinfectants

  • Detergent and Cleaning Formulations: Included in formulations for automatic dishwashing, surface cleaners, and degreasers. Helps soften water, improve cleaning efficiency, and prevent mineral buildup. Maintains stability in high-alkaline and phosphate-based detergent blends.
