Why is the unit price of food grade sodium tripolyphosphate higher than that of industrial grade?

 Recently, the shortage of spot goods has intensified, which has entangled downstream manufacturers who want to purchase recently. Either they have not found a suitable manufacturer, or the price is not too expensive. Sodium tripolyphosphate, as a basic chemical material and related phosphorus containing products, plays an important role, and the relative price has also increased. Why is the unit price of food grade sodium tripolyphosphate higher than that of industrial grade?


First of all, it can be seen literally that the content and related indicators of industrial grade sodium tripolyphosphate meet the national standard. The main raw material of sodium tripolyphosphate is phosphate rock. In the production process, the price of wet process is slightly lower, while the sodium tripolyphosphate produced by thermal process is relatively higher.


The raw material of food grade sodium tripolyphosphate is based on the thermal process. As a food additive, it is standardized and standardized in food processing. The production of food grade sodium tripolyphosphate ensures safety in the long process from raw material production to transportation to sales to consumption.


The industrial application of sodium tripolyphosphate has the functions of chelation, suspension, evacuation, gelling, emulsification and pH buffer. It can be used as an important assistant for synthetic detergent, industrial water softener, tanning pretanning agent, dyeing assistant, organic synthetic catalyst, evacuation agent for pharmaceutical industry, etc. Sodium tripolyphosphate of Chuandong Chemical Group plays an important role in ceramic production.


Food safety is a major event. As food additive, sodium tripolyphosphate can also be used in milk and dairy products, frozen drinks, nuts, cocoa and chocolate products, wheat flour and its products, cooked meat products, baked food, expanded food, canned aquatic products, etc.


It can be seen that there is an essential difference between industrial grade and food grade sodium tripolyphosphate. Food grade can be used for industrial purposes, while industrial grade sodium tripolyphosphate must not be used for food purposes. Because there are no requirements for heavy metals such as arsenic and lead in the industrial grade product indicators, the unit price of food grade sodium tripolyphosphate is higher than that of industrial grade.

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
