Product Description
1. Definition and Chemical Formula
Trisodium phosphate, denoted as Na3PO4, is an inorganic compound. It exists in different hydrated forms, with the dodecahydrate (Na3PO4·12H2O) being common.
2. Physical Properties
It typically appears as white, granular or crystalline solids. They are odorless and highly soluble in water, producing an alkaline solution.
3. Industrial Uses
1) Cleaning Agent: Effective in degreasing industrial equipment. It can break down stubborn grease and oil, making it a key component in many heavy-duty cleaners.
2) Water Treatment: Helps in softening water by reacting with calcium and magnesium ions, preventing scale formation in pipes and boilers.
3) Metal Surface Treatment: Used to clean and etch metal surfaces, improving the adhesion of paints and coatings.
4. Food Industry Applications
As a food additive, it serves multiple functions. It can act as a pH adjuster, emulsifier, and sequestrant, helping to maintain food quality and stability.
5. Environmental Considerations
While useful, its release into water bodies in large amounts can cause eutrophication due to the high phosphorus content, which may lead to excessive algal growth.

Industrial Uses
1. Cleaning Agent
In industrial cleaning, trisodium phosphate is a powerful degreaser. It breaks down grease and oil on machinery, equipment, and industrial surfaces, making it easier to remove dirt.
2. Water Treatment
It plays a crucial role in water treatment. Trisodium phosphate helps to soften water by reacting with metal ions like calcium and magnesium, preventing scale formation in pipes and boilers.
3. Metal Surface Preparation
For metalworking, it is used to clean and etch metal surfaces. This improves the adhesion of paints, coatings, and adhesives, ensuring better protection and a longer-lasting finish.
4. Textile Industry
In the textile industry, trisodium phosphate is used for scouring. It helps to remove natural impurities, oils, and sizing agents from fabrics, preparing them for dyeing and further processing.
5. Paper Industry
In papermaking, it acts as a pH regulator. It helps maintain the proper alkaline environment in the pulp, which is important for the quality of the paper and the efficiency of the papermaking process.
Food Industry Applications
1. pH Adjustment
Trisodium phosphate is used as a pH adjuster in food products. It can help maintain the right acidity or alkalinity in processed foods, affecting their taste, texture, and shelf-life.
2. Emulsification
It functions as an emulsifier, helping to mix immiscible substances like oil and water in food products such as processed cheeses and salad dressings.
3. Sequestrant
As a sequestrant, it binds to metal ions in food. This prevents metal-catalyzed oxidation reactions, which can cause spoilage, off-flavors, and discoloration.
Household Uses
1. Cleaning Products-Found in some household cleaning products, trisodium phosphate effectively removes stubborn stains, grease, and dirt from surfaces like floors, walls, and kitchen appliances.
