- Product Applications
- Trisodium Phosphate Crystalline (TSPC) and Trisodium Phosphate Anhydrous (TSPA) are generally interchangeable in their applications if allowance is made for the differences in water of hydration.
- TSPC contains ¼ mole of NaOH per mole of TSP, giving it a slightly higher solution pH than TSPA.
- Process Cheese and Cheese Products: TSP is used to make a soft process cheese that melts & flows easily at 75-80°C. The TSP sequesters the calcium from the cheese protein causing the protein to dissolve and emulsify the system.
- Quick Cooking Cereals: The high alkalinity of TSP is advantageous when quicker cooking rates are desirable in cooked breakfast cereals. Increased pH also makes the product more creamy or yellow in color giving a richer appearance.
- Recommended Quantities
USDA approved for use in meat, poultry and food processing plants under USDA jurisdiction as a water conditioning compound for entire potable water systems at a dosage not to exceed 20 ppm calculated as PO₄.
