Correct understanding of food additive sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP) in assisted food processing

In food production and management, food additives are the key to check whether illegally and excessively added in the food process. Sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP) is mainly used to improve the color, aroma and taste of food, adjust the nutritional composition of food and prolong the shelf life of food. Sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP) is often contained in soybean paste, bacon, aquatic products, soy sauce, canned fruits and vegetables in daily life.

The effects of food additive sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP) can also be summarized as follows:
1) Improving the quality of food - tasty and delicious;
3) Extending the shelf life of food - improving food safety performance and use value;
4) Improving food processing performance - facilitating industrial production;
5) Enhancing nutrients - increasing and balancing food nutrients.

Compared with industrial grade sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP), the market has the following special requirements for food grade sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP):
Chemical Properties of food grade Sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP): Pay attention to human health and reduce harmful ingredients in products, not only refer to chemical elements such as As/Pb, but also include mechanical impurities. Physical properties: For ease of use, not only the particle size and density of the product are required, but also the water solubility (dissolution rate and insoluble matter) is required.

Sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP) is permitted in the national food additives. It can be used alone or mixed in food. So the usage of sodium hexametaphosphate(SHMP) is: 0.3-0.5% in general, 0.9% in cheese, 0.3% in meat, 0.5% in milk powder, butter powder, frozen fish and shrimp, 0.2% in condensed milk and beverage.

Phosphate is a harmless food additive. It is widely used in food and will not lead to poisoning. However, phosphate can interfere with the digestion and absorption of minerals such as calcium. It must be added in strict accordance with the relevant national food-grade standards.

What role will industrial grade sodium hexametaphosphate manufacturers play in the future coating industry?

图片
The keyword in 2019 is environmental protection and safety. In 2020, environmental protection and safety hurricanes will be more violent. In the manufacturing industry, whether it's packaging, printing, furniture, shipping industry or the phosphate raw material manufacturing enterprises like Chongqing Chuandong Chemical Group that produce  industrial grade sodium hexametaphosphate , it's a good choice to withstand the environmental storm and the obvious environmental protection conditions of the enterprise itself. Take the paint industry for example, the current paint market can be found that although the domestic paint industry has achieved rapid development and formed a certain industry scale, but in the domestic high-end paint market, the domestic paint brands or enterprises are indeed few, and the domestic high-end paint market is still occupied by most of the market share of imported brands. In fact, all industries need to use coatings, and environmental protection coating

What is the use of calcium formate industrial grade in construction? The manufacturer tells you

  With the development of the city's economy, the construction of highways, bridges, tunnels, and civil construction projects will require stricter use of early strength agents. Especially in winter, in order to improve the construction period, the cement mortar needs to be raised as soon as possible and put into use.   Calcium formate industrial grade   is a good early strength agent. Although both calcium formate and calcium chloride are calcium salts, relatively speaking, the performance of calcium formate is more stable. Because the formic acid in calcium formate is a weak acid. The solution will be weakly alkaline during the hydrolysis in the aqueous solution. It can be widely used in mortar. Calcium formate industrial grade is now a newly developed low temperature early strength accelerator in China, which has been widely used in various construction cement mortars. The earliest known and used chlorine salt early strength agent in construction, but the chloride salt early str

The effect of calcium supplement with feed grade calcium formate is good when crops are short of calcium

  Is it true that crops also need calcium supplements? it is true. Crops are plants, like humans and animals, that need rich trace elements to help them grow. When crops are calcium-deficient, plant growth is hindered, and the internodes are shorter, so they are generally shorter than normal plants and have soft tissues. Since calcium has such a big effect, is it good to use   feed grade calcium formate   to supplement calcium? The meristems such as the apical buds, lateral buds, and root tips of crops with calcium-deficient plants first appear nutrient deficiency, which is perishable, the young leaves are curled and deformed, and the leaf edges begin to turn yellow and become necrotic. For example, calcium deficiency can cause leaf scorch disease in cabbage, cabbage and lettuce; tomato, pepper, watermelon, etc. have heart rot; apples have bitter pox and water heart disease. No matter how much is useless, the crops are short of calcium. If we want to achieve the actual effect, what sho
