Monocalcium Phosphate 22%

EDTA Tetrasodium is a very useful salt which is made as a result of neutralisation of ethylenediamine tetra acetic acid with four equivalents of sodium hydroxide. It has the chemical formula C10H12N2Na4O8.

Isobutyl Vinyl Ether has a wide range applications in the industry. One of which is that it is used as a polymer used in various products like coatings, lacquers, and surgical adhesives. It is also used as a modifier for polystyrene and alkyd resins. Another application is as a plasticizer for nitrocellulose and other kinds of plastics.

Dicalcium Phosphate (DCP) appears as white crystalline powder or granules. DCP is colorless and does not have any odor. In addition, it is neutral and shows high solubility in diluted acid and ammonium nitrate. DCP also shows slight solubility in water and is low in terms of hygroscopic abilities. DCP is not soluble in alcohol. The crystal water in Dicalcium Phosphate dihydrate (CaHPO4. 2H2O) starts to dissipate when DCP is heated at 90 0C. When heated above 400 0C, DCP turns into calcium pyrophosphate.

The compound is usually a white powder. It is odourless but irritating to the skin and eyes. The mix is slightly soluble in water and does not burn when exposed to naked flames. It may also take as light yellow colour and is soluble in dilute nitric acid and hydrochloric acid.
