- Properties / Mode of Action
Monopotassium phosphate has good buffering properties. Very effective buffering systems in the neutral range can be produced in combination with disodium phosphate. When heated, dipotassium phosphate is melting at approx. 250°C and is converted into potassium polyphosphate at elevated temperatures. Due to its physical properties Monopostassium Phosphate tends to form lumps. This tendency generally increases over time of storage, especially when the material is exposed to high temperature, high humidity levels or high pressure. These lump formations might be reversible through an adequate physical treatment of the material.
