PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Product Description

STPP 94% Sodium Tripolyphosphate is a white, water-soluble inorganic phosphate powder widely used as an auxiliary ingredient in detergent and cleaning formulations. It functions primarily as a water-softening, buffering, emulsifying, and dispersing agent. In detergent systems, STPP helps control water hardness, supports soil dispersion, assists pH control, and helps maintain the free-flowing properties of powder formulations. The product is also used in applications such as food processing, papermaking, oil drilling mud, ceramics, mining, and water-treatment systems.
