Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP) is a white, crystalline salt with the chemical formula Na5P3O10. It is commonly used as a food additive, water softener, and detergent builder. STPP is also used in industrial applications such as metal treatment, oil drilling, and ceramic production.

In food, STPP is used as a preservative, emulsifier, and texturizer. It is added to processed meats, seafood, and canned goods to improve their texture and extend their shelf life. STPP is also used in dairy products to prevent coagulation and improve texture.

In Water Treatment, STPP is used to soften hard water by binding to the calcium and magnesium ions that cause hardness. This helps to prevent scale buildup in pipes and appliances, and improves the effectiveness of soaps and detergents.

In detergent production, STPP is used as a builder, which helps to improve the cleaning power of the detergent by binding to hard water ions and preventing them from interfering with the cleaning process.

Despite its widespread use, STPP has been the subject of some controversy due to its potential environmental impacts. When released into waterways, STPP can contribute to eutrophication, which is the excessive growth of algae and other aquatic plants that can harm aquatic ecosystems. Some countries have placed restrictions on the use of STPP in certain applications to minimize its environmental impact.
