Description |
Calcium dihydrogen orthophosphate, also known as monocalcium phosphate, is a chemical compound with the formula Ca(H2PO4)2. It is commonly found as a monohydrate which means it has one molecule of water (H2O) as part of its structure and is denoted as Ca(H2PO4)2.H2O. This chemical is often used as a leavening agent in the food industry, specifically in the production of baking powder and bread to promote rising. It is also commonly utilized in fertilizers and feed supplements in the agriculture industry due to its high nutrient content. Moreover, it is considered safe and non-toxic though excessive consumption can lead to health issues due to calcium and phosphorus imbalances in the body. |
