Sodaphos® -- Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) Granular

Sodaphos® -- Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) Granular is valuable to beverage manufacturers to increase shelf life. Cold-filled beverages with a low level of fruit juice can reduce the potassium sorbate and/or sodium benzoate levels by 50% (from 1000 to 500 ppm) with the addition of 0.1 to 0.15% (1000 to 1500 ppm) SHMP. This change in formulation results in reduced ingredient costs and improved flavor profile. SHMP also aids in color stabilization of fruit juice beverages or beverages containing fruit juice components. It is white or clear free-flowing granules. Key properties include sequestration, neutral salt, deflocculation, and buffer capacity.
