About Dicalcium Phosphate Anhydrous
Dicalcium phosphate anhydrous (CaHPO₄) is a calcium phosphate salt used widely as a mineral supplement, leavening agent component, dough conditioner, and yeast food in food and bakery applications. The anhydrous form contains no water of crystallization, offering a higher active content than the dihydrate grade. As E341(ii), it is approved for use in a wide range of food categories under EU and international regulations. It is also extensively used as a calcium and phosphorus supplement in animal feed and pet food formulations. DCP-A is hygroscopic and should be stored in closed containers in a cool, dry location.
Applications
- Dough conditioner and yeast food in baked goods and bread
- Calcium and phosphorus mineral supplement in food and beverages
- Animal feed and pet food supplement
- Leavening agent component in baking powder
- Tableting excipient in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical applications
