Why Choose Food Grade Phosphoric Acid?
Superior Purity Standards
Meets GB 1886.15-2015 food grade standards with rigorous quality control. Each batch is tested for H₃PO₄ content, heavy metals, and contaminants to ensure consistent food-grade performance suitable for human consumption.
Cost-Effective Solution
Food-grade phosphoric acid offers exceptional value without compromising on quality. Bulk packaging options (35kg to 1650kg) reduce per-unit costs and minimize packaging waste while maintaining purity.
Stable & Long Shelf Life
Phosphoric acid is highly stable under normal storage conditions. Its non-volatile nature means minimal evaporation, and proper storage in sealed containers ensures multi-year shelf life without degradation.
Regulatory Compliance
Our phosphoric acid complies with international food safety regulations including ISO 22000, HACCP, and food-grade certifications. Comprehensive documentation and safety data sheets are provided for all shipments.

Key Chemical Characteristics of Phosphoric Acid:
Molecular Formula: H₃PO₄
A triprotic weak acid with three ionizable hydrogen atoms, enabling multiple reaction pathways in food chemistry and pharmaceutical synthesis.
Density & Viscosity
At 85% concentration, phosphoric acid has a density of approximately 1.7 g/cm³, providing excellent handling characteristics and precise dosing in automated food production systems.
Non-Oxidizing Nature
Unlike nitric acid, phosphoric acid does not oxidize most materials, making it ideal for use in food processing equipment without causing unwanted corrosion or contamination.
Hygroscopic Properties
Phosphoric acid readily absorbs moisture, which is advantageous in certain food preservation applications and humidity control in manufacturing processes.
Thermal Stability
Maintains chemical integrity at elevated temperatures, making it suitable for high-temperature food processing and thermal synthesis reactions in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
