Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) Product Details
Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) Product Description
Product Description Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) is a white, odorless, water-soluble crystalline powder or granule. It is a polymeric phosphate with strong chelating properties, making it widely used in water treatment, detergents, food processing, ceramics, and other industrial applications. SHMP is known for its ability to sequester metal ions, disperse solids, and stabilize various formulations.
Production Process
Production Process Sodium Hexametaphosphate is produced through a controlled thermal process:
- Reaction: Phosphoric acid reacts with sodium carbonate or sodium hydroxide to form sodium phosphate solution.
- Polymerization: The sodium phosphate solution is heated at high temperatures (300-500°C) to induce polymerization, forming sodium hexametaphosphate.
- Cooling & Grinding: The resulting glassy solid is rapidly cooled and then ground into the desired particle size.
- Quality Contro
