DICALCIUM PHOSPHATE DIHYDRATE
1, molecular formula: water CaHPO4; two water CaHPO4, 2H2O
2, molecular weight: water content 136.06; two water 172.09
3, Specificity: white crystalline powder, no smell and tasteless, soluble in dilute hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, acetic acid, slightly soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol. Relative density was 2.32. Be steady in the air. loses water of crystallization at 75 degrees celsius and generates dicalcium phosphate anhydrous.
4, Usage:Used as loose agent in food industry. Dough improver, buffer, nutritional supplement, emulsifier and stabilizer etc.. Such as bulking agent for flour, cake, pastry, and baking products,as modifier for mixed type of bread and fried food. Also used in biscuits, milk powder, cold drinks, ice cream powder. As a nutritional supplement or quality improvement agent.
5, Packing: Packed with polyethylene plastic bag as liner, and woven bag as the outer layer. The net weight of each bag is 25kg.
