STPP Applications:

Used in food as a stabilizer instead of toxic nitrite compounds. – It is used in textiles as a stabilizing and softening agent. Weight percentage 1 to 3 – The main use is in the production of synthetic detergents and its amount is included between detergent powders. Prevents the re-deposition of solid particles and immersion, in addition to the alkaline role in their STPP-detergent powders at the water surface. – This material is also used as a lubricant in the tile and ceramic industries.
