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

Other Properties

Soluble in water forming sodium metaphosphate at 350-400 C. pH =4.4 - 4.5 for a 1% solution. Insoluble in ethanol.
