Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) works best at pH levels close to neutral

Tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP) and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) function best in alkaline settings, whereas sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP) works best in close-to-neutral pH levels. For more acidic pH settings, monosodium phosphate (MSP) is frequently combined with SHMP. The so-called threshold effect relates to some phosphate compounds' capacity to prevent the development of carbonate or sulphate scales at levels much below those required for a stoichimetric 1:1 combination with the metal ions. This is thought to be due to the phosphate interfering with the formation of early crystals. In the case of SHMP, only 2-4 ppm is necessary to prevent scale formation in water containing high calcium levels. SHMP (sodium hexametaphosphate) is a sequestrant with applications in a wide range of sectors, including as a food additive, where it is designated by the E number E452i. SHMP is occasionally treated with sodium carbonate to elevate the pH to 8.0-8.6, resulting in a variety of SHMP products for water softening and detergents. Also used to break down clay and other soil types as a dispersion agent.
