Sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP)
is typically a mixture of polymeric metaphosphates,
It is more correctly termed sodium polymetaphosphate.
It has got strong hygroscopicity and can absorb humidity
from the air to become into pasty form; It may form
soluble chelates with ions of Ca, Ba, Mg, Cu, Fe etc.
Sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP) is used in industries
of oilfields, paper production, textile, dyeing, petroleum,
chemistry, metallurgy and construction materials etc.
as water softener, flotation selecting agent, disperser
and high temperature adhesive.
In food industry it used as an additive, nourishing
agent, quality improver, PH regulator, metal ions chelating
agent, adhesive and leavening agent etc.
