Sodium triphosphate STP, also sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), is an inorganic compound with formula Na5P3O10. It is the sodium salt of the polyphosphate penta-anion, which is the conjugate base of triphosphoric acid. Sodium tripolyphosphate is a white crystal powder with melting point at 622℃. STPP is easily soluble in water. And aqueous solution appears acid. It is provided with remarkable chelating ability to some metal ions such as Ca2+ and Mg2+, etc. But it easily aborbs moisture or water.
