Trisodium phosphate dodecahydrate is used as an emulsifier, nutritional supplement, and quality improver in food processing.
Trisodium phosphate dodecahydrate is used as a water softener and detergent, boiler antiscalant, water softener in paper dyeing, pH buffer for the production of wax paper adhesive, fixing agent during printing and dyeing, mercerization enhancer for fabrics, and antibrittleness agent for thread making. It is used in the metallurgical industry as a chemical degreasing and decontamination, metal corrosion inhibitor or rust inhibitor. He is used as a flux and decolorizing agent in the enamel industry, as a degreaser and degumming agent in the tanning industry, as an excellent promoter in photographic development solutions, as a detergent for tooth cleaners and bottles, a coagulant for rubber milk, and a purifier for sugar juice.
Chemical: A hydrated inorganic salt with 12 water molecules, forming colorless/white crystals. Highly soluble in water.
Properties: Strongly alkaline (pH ~12 in solution) due to phosphate ion (PO₄³⁻) hydrolysis.
Primary Uses:
Lab Buffer/Reagent: Adjusts pH in molecular biology/biochemistry.
Cleaning Agent: Degreases surfaces and lab glassware effectively.
Water Treatment: Softens water by precipitating calcium/magnesium ions; prevents boiler scale.
Food Industry: Approved emulsifier/texturizer (e.g., in processed cheeses).
Safety: Corrosive—causes skin/eye burns; handle with gloves/goggles. Avoid environmental release (eutrophication risk).
Summary: A versatile alkaline salt critical for buffering, cleaning, water softening, and regulated food applications.
