Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, also known as
disodium dihydrogen pyrophosphate,
disodium pyrophosphate, is white crystalline powder, which has the relative density of 1.864 and can decompose into sodium metaphosphate when it is heated above 220℃. it is easily soluble in water and can form chelates with Cu2+ and Fe2+. The aqueous solution can be hydrolyzed to phosphoric acid by heating with dilute sulfuric acid or dilute mineral acid. Sodium acid pyrophosphate is usually used in food processing industry.

SAPP 28
SAPP 28 refers to sodium acid pyrophosphate with a fermentation rate of 24-30. Although it is often called SAPP ROR 28, the fermentation rate is not fixed, but usually a range. It is a medium speed leavening agent, as well as the most demanded specification.
SAPP 40
SAPP 40 refers to sodium acid prrophosphate with a fermentation rate of 35-43. It is a kind of fast leavening agent.
Choose SAPP 28 Or SAPP 40
Different products require SAPP to produce gas at different speeds. The use of slow speed SAPP for frozen dough for biscuits and bakery products requires a slow initial rate of CO2 evolution during preparation and packaging, and a large gas evolution during the baking phase.
Medium-speed SAPP 28 is used in cakes, a part of the gas is generated in the early stage, and a part of the gas is generated after heating in the later stage. If there is too much gas in the early stage of baking, the volume will expand rapidly. At this time, the cake tissue has not yet condensed, and the finished product is easy to collapse and the tissue is thicker, but it cannot continue to expand in the later stage. If using too much slow-speed SAPP, the initial expansion will be slow, and after the product is condensed, part of the baking powder has not yet produced gas, making the cake small in size and losing the meaning of swelling.
The baking powder used for steamed buns and steamed buns needs to produce gas a little faster because the dough is relatively hard. So using fast-speed SAPP 40 will be better. If too much gas is produced after condensation, the finished product will appear “flowering”.

What Is Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate Used For
Food grade sodium dihydrogen phosphate can be used as rapid leavening agent, quality improver, buffer agent, chelator, stabilizer, emulsifier, color improver, etc…
- In the barbecue food, it can control the fermentation speed and increase the production intensity.
- Used in the processing of biscuit, pastry and bread, it can prolong the storage time, make the loose gap neat and reduce the breakage rate of biscuits and cakes.
- Used in sausage processing, it can improve taste, make the color much better and increase processing speed.
- Used in the processing of aquatic products, fish balls and other frozen food, it can play a role of chelation, prevent crystal flower formation and control moisture.
- Used in the processing of instant noodle products, it can shorten the rehydration time of finished products. After rehydration, the noodles won’t be sticky and broken.
- It Is often used with sodium bicarbonate as a leavening agent in bakery products. In bakeries, SAPP is a slow fermenting acid which may contain suitable aluminium or calcium salts to control the reaction rate.
- Generally, SAPP food grade is used as the acid component in baking powder. As a chelating agent or in combination with other polyphosphates to chelate magnesium and iron ions. For example, it can chelate iron during potato processing to prevent dark discoloration.
- In French fries, the chemical reduces levels of a carcinogen called acrylamide. It also prevents discoloration of potatoes and syrup.
- In canned tuna, it can prevent the formation of harmless struvite crystals.
What Are Advantages of Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate SAPP in Baking
Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate (SAPP) is an important ingredient in double-acting baking powder and self-raising flour. Because SAPP acts slowly and doesn’t react quickly with baking soda, it is the most common self-raising flour fermentation acid used by home bakers. SAPP reacts in stages. Initially, SAPP reacts with baking soda to produce carbon dioxide gas when moisture is added to form the dough. Then the remaining gas is released when heated during the baking process.
Fermenting acids provide air and volume to the baked structure, but also affect the properties of the dough. In addition to reacting with baking soda to produce carbon dioxide gas, these acids form ionic bonds with starch and proteins in the dough. SAPP readily dissolves to form anionic pyrophosphate, which interacts with proteins in baked food systems to provide a moist texture. In addition, it provides a buffer for doughs in the pH range of 7.3-7.5, which affects the color of baked products.
Is Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate Safe
The European Food Additive Number for SAPP is E 450(i). Its safety as a food additive has been approved by the FDA, EFSA, FAO, WHO, JECFA and other authorities. It is permitted by Islamic law and qualifies as halal. E450(i) meets all “kashruth” requirements and can be certified kosher. Generally, it is vegetarian and gluten free. The manufacturing process meets the FDA’s definition of gluten-free, meaning no wheat, rye, barley, or hybrids of these grains.
Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate Preparation - Neutralize food grade phosphoric acid and soda ash, control the terminal PH value and generate sodium dihydrogen phosphate. Then it should be polymerized and dehydrated at a certain temperature to obtain the product SAPP.
- Dry polymerization two-step method. Add food grade soda ash to the neutralizer, heat it and make it dissolve under stirring, then add food grade phosphoric acid for neutralization reaction. The reaction end point PH value should be controlled to 4-4.4 and sodium dihydrogen phosphate can be formed. Filter the solution at 70-80℃. The filtrate can be concentrated by evaporation, cooled, crystallized, separated, and dehydrated to anhydrous sodium dihydrogen phosphate at 95℃. Send the formed anhydrous sodium dihydrogen phosphate to the tank polymerization furnace for heating and melting polymerization. Control the material temperature at 140-200℃ for polymerization. The converted sodium acid pyrophosphate is packaged after pulverization to prepare edible disodium dihydrogen pyrophosphate.
