- Overview
- Recommended Products
Product Name: Sodium Hexametaphosphate
Product Details:
1.Chemical Formula: (NaPO₃)₆
2.Common Name: Graham's salt, SHMP
3.Appearance: White crystalline powder
4.Specification: Food grade
5.Purity: 67%
6.Applications:
● Moisture Retainer: Bind with water molecules to enhance water-holding capacity, preventing moisture loss (e.g., meat/seafood).
● Quality Improver: Interact with proteins to boost solubility/gelation, improving elasticity and sliceability in processed meats. Inhibit fat oxidation, extending shelf life.
● Chelating Agent: Strongly bind Ca²⁺/Mg²⁺/Fe²⁺ to prevent discoloration, sedimentation, or oxidation (e.g., beverages, dairy, canned foods).
● Dispersant & Emulsifier: Ensure uniform dispersion of insoluble components, preventing clumping (e.g., seasonings, ice cream).
