STPP analysis report COA batch 202560610 GB/T9983-2004 Qualified
Example COA (batch 202560610, GB/T9983-2004, Qualified): STPP 93.9%, P₂O₅ 58.4%, Fe 0.006%, water-insoluble 0.03%, whiteness 90%, pH 9.53.

Answer first: Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP / 三聚磷酸钠) is a kaolin dispersant (deflocculant). It helps liberate and disperse iron so the magnetic separator can capture iron more effectively, achieving higher whiteness on kaolin and ceramic slurry/glaze lines. Formula Na₅P₃O₁₀; bag label N.W. 25 kg / G.W. 25.1 kg, Made in China. Example COA (batch 202560610, GB/T9983-2004, Qualified): STPP 93.9% (≥90), P₂O₅ 58.4% (≥56.5), Fe 0.006% (≤0.015), water-insoluble 0.03% (≤0.1), whiteness 90% (≥85), pH 9.53 (9.2–10). Anhydrous and hexahydrate forms exist. Type I (一型) focus: higher Type I content → higher temperature rise when dissolving in water. Q: Does STPP replace a magnetic separator? A: No — it prepares the slurry; PTMS electromagnetic slurry / wet magnetic separators perform iron removal. Related: SHMP (Sodium Hexametaphosphate). Supplier: FOSHAN POWTECH TECHNOLOGY COMPANY LIMITED (PTMS). Inquire for quotation — no price listed.

Questions and answers

What is Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP) used for?

STPP (三聚磷酸钠, Na₅P₃O₁₀) is a kaolin dispersant (deflocculant). It helps liberate and disperse iron so a magnetic separator can capture iron more effectively, raising kaolin and ceramic slurry/glaze whiteness. Bag: N.W. 25 kg / G.W. 25.1 kg, Made in China.

What are the bag and COA specifications for STPP?

Bag: SODIUM TRIPOLYPHOSPHATE, STPP, Na₅P₃O₁₀, N.W. 25KGS, G.W. 25.1KGS, MADE IN CHINA. Example COA (batch 202560610, GB/T9983-2004, Qualified): STPP 93.9% (≥90), P₂O₅ 58.4% (≥56.5), Fe 0.006% (≤0.015), water-insoluble 0.03% (≤0.1), whiteness 90% (≥85), pH 9.53 (9.2–10).

Anhydrous vs hexahydrate — and what about Type I (一型)?

STPP exists in anhydrous and hexahydrate forms. Higher Type I (一型) content leads to a higher temperature rise when dissolving in water. Confirm form and Type I preference when you inquire.

Does STPP replace a magnetic separator?

No. STPP prepares the slurry; the magnetic separator performs iron removal. Used together they support higher whiteness. PTMS supplies both STPP and electromagnetic slurry / wet magnetic separators.

How does STPP relate to SHMP?

Both STPP and SHMP are phosphate dispersants / deflocculants used on kaolin and ceramic lines to help liberate iron ahead of magnetic separation for higher whiteness. Buyers often compare both.

Is there a public price?

No. Quotation by inquiry only — email [email protected] or WhatsApp +86 139 2990 7491.
