Tripotassium Phosphate

Tripotassium Phosphate

Tripotassium phosphate is a strongly alkaline phosphate salt used as a buffering agent, emulsifier, and potassium fortifier in food and industrial applications. Highly soluble in water, it creates clear, alkaline solutions ideal for pH control, cleaning formulations, and metal treatment.

In foods, TKP supports emulsification, stabilization, and low-sodium reformulations by replacing sodium phosphates. Its multifunctionality makes it valuable across meat processing, cereals, sauces, and specialized cleaning products.

Sr. No. Description Specification
1 Purity 98% minimum
2 Chemical Formula K₃PO₄
3 Form White fine powder
4 Country of origin India
5 Quantities 25 kg sacks and bulk kg packaging for large plants
  • White, hygroscopic solid, highly soluble in water with strongly alkaline pH.

  • Forms clear solutions that act as strong buffering and sequestering agents.

  • Stable under normal storage; may absorb moisture if exposed to humid air.

  • Non-combustible inorganic salt with low volatility.

  • Food additive (E340(iii)) as acidity regulator, emulsifier, stabilizer, and potassium fortifier.
  • Functional ingredient in meat processing, extruded cereals, sauces, cheeses, and whipped toppings.
  • Alkaline builder in heavy-duty cleaners, degreasers, and CIP systems.
  • pH control and buffering agent in industrial water treatment and metal finishing.
  • Food-grade TKP is approved by FDA, EFSA, and JECFA when used within regulatory limits.

  • Strongly alkaline; solutions can cause irritation or burns on prolonged contact—use gloves, goggles, and protective clothing.

  • Avoid inhalation of dust; ensure good ventilation or local exhaust at charging points.

  • Store in tightly sealed bags in cool, dry areas to prevent caking and moisture uptake.
