Tripotassium phosphate, also known as tribasic potassium phosphate, appears as a deliquescent white powder. It is a water-soluble ionic salt and are slightly hygroscopic in nature. It is available in hydrated form as a monohydrate and dihydrate and is used as a food additive for its properties as an emulsifier, foaming agent and whipping agent.

 

Manufacturing Processes

Tripotassium phosphate can be manufactured through the reaction between ammonium phosphate and potassium chloride.

(NH4)3PO4 + 3KCl → K3PO4 + 3NH4Cl

Food Industry
