Calcium Phosphate Monobasic CAS 7758-23-8

(1) Leavening agent and dough conditioner
It is often used as a leavening agent and dough conditioner in the food industry. It can improve the texture of food, making it softer and more delicious. Dihydrogen phosphate plays an important role in the production process of flour, cakes, pastries, baked goods, fried foods, cookies, and other foods. It can increase the chelating metal ions and pH value of food, enhance ion strength, and thus improve the adhesion and water holding capacity of food. For example, in bread making, adding an appropriate amount of calcium dihydrogen phosphate can expand the volume of bread, make the internal structure more delicate, and improve the taste. According to Chinese regulations, the maximum usage amount for bread, biscuits, and baking powder is 4.0g/kg (calculated as phosphoric acid); Solid beverage is 8.0g/kg; Wheat flour can be used in moderation according to production needs.

(2) Buffering agent
It can also be used as a buffering agent to regulate the acidity and alkalinity of food and maintain its stability. In some foods that require high acidity and alkalinity, such as dairy products, beverages, etc., adding can prevent quality changes during processing and storage due to changes in acidity and alkalinity, and extend the shelf life of the food.

(3) Nutritional supplements
As a nutritional supplement, it can provide calcium elements to food and increase its nutritional value. Calcium is one of the essential minerals for the human body and is crucial for the healthy development of bones and teeth. Adding it to foods such as milk powder, cold drinks, and ice cream can allow consumers to consume sufficient calcium while enjoying delicious food, meeting the body's nutritional needs.

(4) Emulsifiers and stabilizers
It has emulsifying and stabilizing effects, which can better mix ingredients such as oil and water in food, forming a uniform emulsion or suspension. Adding ingredients to dairy products, seasonings, and other foods can improve their stability and taste, preventing the occurrence of layering and sedimentation.

(5) Seasoning agents and fermentation promoters for wine
In the process of making wine, it can be used as a seasoning to improve the flavor of the wine. It can regulate the acidity and alkalinity of wine, making the taste more mellow. Meanwhile, calcium dihydrogen phosphate can also promote the fermentation process of wine, improve fermentation efficiency, and increase the yield and quality of wine.

(1) Calcium supplements
As one of the calcium supplements, moderate supplementation of calcium phosphate monobasic can help the human body supplement calcium, prevent and treat related diseases or symptoms caused by calcium deficiency. Calcium is the main component of human bones and teeth, playing an important role in maintaining the strength and density of bones. As people age, their ability to absorb calcium gradually decreases, making them more susceptible to diseases such as osteoporosis, skeletal dysplasia, and rickets. Moderate supplementation can increase calcium intake, promote bone growth and development, and prevent and treat these diseases.

(2) Regulating bone growth and development
It plays an important regulatory role in the growth and development of human bones. During childhood and adolescence, bones are in a rapid growth and development stage, requiring a large amount of calcium to support bone growth. It can provide sufficient calcium source for the body, promote the proliferation and differentiation of bone cells, and make bones stronger and healthier.

(3) Enhancing immunity and improving sleep quality
Helps maintain the body's acid-base balance and metabolism, thereby promoting growth and development, and enhancing immunity. It can also improve sleep quality and relieve fatigue. Calcium is involved in the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters, playing an important role in the normal function of the nervous system. Moderate supplementation can regulate the excitability of the nervous system, making it easier for people to fall asleep and improving sleep quality.

(1) Feed additives
Widely used as a feed additive for aquaculture animals and livestock breeding animals. As a feed additive, it can enhance the nutritional value of feed and promote animal growth performance. The amount of additives in feed is generally between 1% and 2%. It can provide mineral elements such as calcium and phosphorus for animals to meet their growth and development needs. Calcium and phosphorus are important components of animal bones and teeth, and have a significant impact on animal bone development, muscle growth, and reproductive performance. In aquaculture, adding can promote the growth of fish and improve their disease resistance; In animal husbandry, it is possible to increase the weight of livestock and improve the yield and quality of meat, eggs, and milk.

(2) Plastic stabilizer
Can be used in the plastic industry as a stabilizer. It can improve the thermal and photostability of plastics, preventing degradation and aging of plastics during processing and use. In the production process of plastic products, adding an appropriate amount can prolong the service life of plastic products and improve product quality.

(3) Analytical reagents
In the laboratory, calcium dihydrogen phosphate can be used as an analytical reagent. It can be used to determine the concentration of calcium ions, phosphate ions, etc. in a solution. Due to its stable chemical properties and high purity, it is widely used in fields such as chemical analysis and environmental monitoring.

(4) Other industrial applications
It can also be used in refractory industry, sewage treatment and other fields, as well as as as an additive for producing glass. In the refractory industry, it can be used as a binder to improve the strength and high temperature resistance of refractory materials; In sewage treatment, it can serve as a flocculant to remove suspended solids and impurities from water; In glass manufacturing, adding can improve the performance of glass, enhance its transparency and chemical stability.

(1) Phosphate fertilizer
It is a common phosphate fertilizer. Phosphate fertilizer mainly has the functions of strengthening fruits, drought resistance, and cold resistance during the growth process of crops. In fruit tree cultivation, phosphorus fertilizer can promote fruit plumpness, bright color, and improve fruit quality. Moreover, in arid or cold environments, crops treated with phosphorus fertilizer can better adapt, improve their stress resistance, and reduce the damage caused by environmental stress. Phosphorus is one of the three essential nutrients for plant growth and development, and it participates in physiological processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, and energy metabolism. Phosphorus can be absorbed and utilized by plant roots, promoting their growth and development, and enhancing their ability to absorb nutrients.

(2) Scientific and rational use of fertilizers and pesticides
In agricultural production, Calcium phosphate monobasic is necessary to use fertilizers and pesticides scientifically and reasonably in order to achieve sustainable development of agriculture, ensure high yield and high quality of crops, and protect our ecological environment. Although phosphorus fertilizer plays an important role in crop growth, excessive use can also bring some negative effects, such as soil acidification and eutrophication of water bodies. Therefore, when using calcium dihydrogen phosphate, the amount and method of use should be reasonably determined based on factors such as soil fertility and crop demand.
