Description

White, crystalline powder. Monobasic sodium phosphate, or MSP, is primarily used in baking powder. It also has applications in textile dyeing, electroplating and as a cleaner and emulsifier. In conservation, MSP has been used as a pH buffer in some enzyme-based cleaning gel mixtures (Chapman 1986).

Synonyms and Related Terms

MSP; sodium acid phosphate; sodium biphosphate; sodium orthophosphate; sodium dihydrogen phosphate; monosodium dihydrogen phosphate

Risks

  • May be harmful by ingestion.
  • Contact may cause irritation.
