Monosodium Phosphate Anhydrous (MSPA) Granular is a high‑purity, white, free‑flowing phosphate salt that meets the Food Chemicals Codex specifications for monobasic sodium phosphate. It functions primarily as an acidulant, buffering agent, emulsifying agent, and protein modifier, offering broad versatility across food, industrial, and water treatment applications.
In food systems, MSPA is valued for its acidulation properties, which support gelling, pH adjustment, and flavor enhancement. It can be used to accelerate gelation in products such as custards and cheesecake mixes and to impart tartness in non‑cola beverages.
The granular anhydrous form is produced to ensure consistent solubility and performance, making it an excellent ingredient or processing aid across multiple sectors. Related NSF‑grade granular monosodium phosphate is also recognized for its use as an emulsifier, pH stabilizer, and curing agent, highlighting its functional versatility.
