Description
White, crystalline, hygroscopic powder. Tribasic sodium phosphate, or TSP, is used as a Water softener, Sequestrant, Buffer, Emulsifier, and Flame retardant. It removes dissolves hard water deposits including boiler scale. TSP is used in detergents, metal cleaners, paint removers, paper manufacturing, and leather tanning. It is also used in developing baths for color photographs.
Synonyms and Related Terms
TSP; trisodium phosphate; trisodium orthophosphate; tertiary sodium phosphate; sodium hypophosphate; Oakite; phosphate cleaner
