Introduction of Tetra Potassium Pyrophosphate (TKPP):
1. Tetra potassium pyrophosphate (TKPP) is in the form of white powder and granular.
2. In food processing, it is mainly used as emulsifier, quality modifier, metal ion chelating agent.
3. For quick-frozen marine products, it is used to keep the freshness, hold water and improve the quality.
4. In meat processing, better effects are achievable when it compounds with other phosphates, which can improve the product quality and can be used as caking agent for ham and sausage.
5. Tetra potassium pyrophosphate (TKPP) also can be used to prevent the struvite of canned seafoods and the discoloration of fruit products, improve ice cream swelling rate, improve the taste of noodle and cake, and prevent the cheese aging
