Abstract
There is disclosed a process for preparing sodium tripolyphosphate which will dissolve readily in an aqueous solution also containing sodium chloride and various spices and flavorings useful in the treatment of food products such as fresh red meats, poultry and fish. The sodium tripolyphosphate of this invention is prepared from a dry blend of disodium phosphate and monosodium phosphate in a weight ratio in the range of from about 2.35 to about 2.45. The dry blend is calcined so as to produce a product having from 85% to 90% sodium tripolyphosphate, of which from about 90% to 100%, by weight, is phase II product. The product also contains about 10% to about 15% sodium pyrophosphate.
