Sodium Tripolyphosphate (Food Grade, Kosher)
Sodium tripolyphosphate, also known as sodium triphosphate or STPP, is mainly consumed as a component of commercial detergents. It serves as a builder or water softener, particularly in hard water containing high concentrations of magnesium and calcium ions. In such conditions, detergents can be deactivated. However, STPP, being a highly charged chelating agent, tightly binds to calcium and magnesium ions, preventing their interference with sulfonate detergent performance.
STPP is not only used in detergents but also serves as a preservative for seafood, meats, poultry, and animal feeds. In the food industry, it is commonly known as E451 and finds usage as an emulsifier and moisture retainer. Many governments regulate the quantities allowed in foods, as STPP can substantially increase the sale weight of seafood. The United States Food and Drug Administration recognizes STPP as "generally recognized as safe."
Sodium tripolyphosphate is available in low density, medium density, and high-density granular powders. The specific product being described here is a medium density variant. It is categorized as food (FCC) grade, granular, medium density, and Kosher-certified. Besides its primary uses in water softening and as a sequestering agent, STPP can also function as a peptizing or deflocculating agent. Furthermore, it has applications in detergents, soaps, and ceramics.
The chemical structure of sodium tripolyphosphate is [Na5P3O10]n. It is also known by synonyms such as sodium triphosphate, triphosphoric acid pentasodium salt, sodium phosphate tripoly, STPP, pentasodium triphosphate, and pentasodium tripolyphosphate. The product is packaged in 50-lb bags by the original manufacturer, while smaller quantities are repacked for laboratory, research, and industrial uses. The CAS number for sodium tripolyphosphate is [7758-29-4][Na5O10P3]n.
Sodium tripolyphosphate exhibits low toxicity, making it a safe choice for various applications.
Key Features:
- Effective detergent component and water softener
- Chelating agent that prevents interference with sulfonate detergents

Benzyl Alcohol - Phenylmethanol
Benzyl Alcohol is a colorless liquid with a mild, pleasant aromatic odor. It is highly valued as a solvent due to its polarity, low toxicity, and low vapor pressure. This compound is partially soluble in water (4 g/100 mL) and completely miscible in alcohols. Benzyl Alcohol, NF, plays a crucial role in the manufacturing of other benzyl compounds and serves as a pharmaceutical aid and preservative in numerous injectable drugs. Widely used in perfumery and flavoring, it is an organic aromatic alcohol naturally found in various fruits, teas, and essential oils such as Jasmine, Hyacinth, and Ylang-Ylang. In addition to being a preservative, Benzyl Alcohol functions as a solvent, anesthetic, flavoring agent, and an active ingredient in head lice treatments. Its versatile applications extend to personal care products, including baby products, eye products, shaving products, cosmetics, skincare, hair care, nail care, and bath products, as well as soaps and detergents. With the formula C₆H₅CH₂OH, Benzyl Alcohol is manufactured in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and complies with Cosmetics Directive 76/768/EC and its amendments. It holds GRAS, Halal, and Kosher certifications and is not tested on animals. Perfect for pharmaceutical manufacturers, cosmetic formulators, personal care product developers, food and flavoring industry professionals, health and wellness product companies.
