Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) is a multifunctional sequestrant, dispersant, and water‑softening agent used in food, detergents, ceramics, and water treatment. Its ability to complex metal ions and control hardness improves detergent efficiency, stabilises emulsions, and enhances pigment and slip dispersion.
Chinese‑origin SHMP produced to consistent polymerisation and P₂O₅ content provides reliable performance where controlled sequestration and dispersion are critical to process stability and end‑product quality.

White, hygroscopic solid with neutral to slightly alkaline reaction.
Highly soluble in water; solutions gradually hydrolyse to shorter phosphates.
Effective sequestrant for calcium and magnesium ions.
Builder and sequestrant in detergents and cleaning products.
Dispersant in ceramics, pigments, and clay processing.
Sequestrant and texture improver in selected food applications (grade‑dependent).
Avoid prolonged skin and eye contact with concentrated solutions.
Store in dry, sealed packaging to prevent caking and hydrolysis.
Monitor regulatory limits for phosphate discharge in effluents.
