Sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP) is a widely used inorganic compound. Its core functions are chelating metal ions, dispersion, emulsification, buffering, and water retention. It is mainly used in the food industry, water treatment, detergents, ceramics, and papermaking.
Aojin Chemical specializes in supplying food-grade and industrial-grade sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP), with a content of 68.00% and stable performance. It is a core additive in many industries.
I. Food Industry (Main Use)As a quality improver, moisture retainer, chelating agent, and stabilizer:Meat products/Aquatic products: Improves the water retention of ham, sausages, and fish balls (increasing water retention by approximately 30%), improves tenderness and elasticity, and prevents fat oxidation.
Beverages/Canned Goods: Chelates calcium, magnesium, and iron ions to prevent turbidity and sedimentation in fruit juices and beer, stabilizes natural pigments in fruits and vegetables, and inhibits vitamin C decomposition.
Dairy Products: Prevents protein coagulation and sedimentation, stabilizing the quality of milk, milk powder, and condensed milk.
Ice Cream: Enhances emulsification and inhibits the formation of large ice crystals, resulting in a smoother and more delicate texture.
Noodle Products: Improves the chewiness and rehydration properties of noodles and instant noodles.
II. Water Treatment (Core Industrial Applications)Softening/Scale Inhibitor: Strongly chelates calcium and magnesium ions to prevent scale buildup in boilers, pipes, and heat exchangers; used in circulating water systems and RO reverse osmosis systems.Corrosion Inhibitor: Forms a protective film on metal surfaces, inhibiting pipe corrosion.
III. Detergents and Daily ChemicalsDetergent Builders: Softens hard water, enhances detergency, and prevents redeposition of dirt; used in laundry detergents and dishwashing liquids.Toothpaste: Used as an anti-tartar and anti-staining ingredient.
IV. Other Industrial ApplicationsCeramics/Mineral Processing: As a degumming agent/dispersant, it reduces slurry viscosity, improves slurry flowability, and inhibits the growth of quartz and silicate minerals.Papermaking: As a pulp dispersant, it improves fiber distribution.Textile Printing and Dyeing: Softens water, prevents dye precipitation, and improves dyeing uniformity.Building Materials: Cement hardening accelerator, it speeds up setting and improves early strength.
V. Core Working PrincipleChlorination (Complexation): Encapsulates metal ions such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and copper, preventing them from forming insoluble substances or catalyzing oxidation.
Dispersion/Anti-flocculation: Charges particles, preventing agglomeration and improving flowability.
Water Retention/Emulsification: Stabilizes protein and fat structures, locking in moisture.
