It is white crystalline or powder solid, easily soluble in water, slightly alkaline in aqueous solution (pH 8.8-9.2), slightly soluble in alcohol, hygroscopic, widely used in medicine, food, agriculture, industry and scientific research fields.  Relying on advanced technology and strict quality management system, Shandong Jiurunfa Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. produces high purity (≥98%) Dipotassium Hydrogen Phosphate, which conforms to the national and international standards (e.g. GB, USP, FCC, etc.), and meets the diversified needs of different industries.  

Chemical properties and product specifications  

1. Physical properties: Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate is white crystalline or amorphous powder with moderate relative density, easily soluble in water, and the aqueous solution is slightly alkaline to phenolphthalein. Its hygroscopicity makes it necessary to pay attention to the storage conditions in a humid environment to avoid the product from moisture.

2. Chemical Properties: Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate will be converted to pyrophosphate after burning, this characteristic makes it need special attention in some high temperature application environments. At the same time, it is easy to react with acid to produce corresponding phosphate and potassium salts.

3. Purity and specification: The purity of dipotassium hydrogen phosphate supplied by Shandong Jiurunfa Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. is up to more than 98%, which is in line with the relevant international and domestic standards. The product specifications are various, and we can provide products with different packages and purity according to customers' requirements.

Application fields

1. Pharmaceutical industry: Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate is used in the pharmaceutical industry as an incubator for antibiotics such as penicillin, streptomycin, etc. It is also used in the preparation of health food, fillers and pharmaceutical raw materials. Its slightly alkaline aqueous solution and stability make it an important component in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

2. Food industry: In the food industry, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate is used as a raw material for the preparation of lye for pasta products, as an agent for fermentation, as a flavoring agent, as a bulking agent, and as a mild alkaline agent for dairy products, etc. It helps to improve the taste and texture of food. It helps to improve the taste and nutritional value of food products while maintaining their stability and freshness.

3. Agriculture and feed: Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate is also used as a feed additive to provide animals with essential phosphorus and potassium elements for growth and health. In agriculture, it can be used to regulate soil pH and improve soil fertility.

4. Chemical analysis: In chemical analysis, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate is used as a buffer to regulate the pH of the solution and ensure the accuracy of the analysis results. In addition, it is also used in the fields of phosphate treatment of metals and electroplating additives.

5. Other applications: Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate is also used as a buffer in the preparation of antifreeze and freeze inhibitors, as well as a nutrient in antimicrobial culture media. Its wide range of applications makes dipotassium hydrogen phosphate an important and indispensable raw material in the chemical industry.

Storage and transportation
