Inorganic phosphates derive from orthophosphoric acid by successive replacement of its
three protons, giving mono-, di- and tribasic salts whose solutions sit at progressively higher
pH.
Condensed forms such as pyro-, tripoly- and hexametaphosphate sequester calcium and
magnesium, making them effective water softeners and dispersants.
Molychem stocks inorganic phosphates including sodium, potassium, ammonium and
calcium phosphates in LR and AR, plus STPP and SHMP.
