Understanding the inorganic compound Ca₃(PO₄)₂ and its key physicochemical properties.
Tribasic Calcium Phosphate (commonly referred to as Tricalcium Phosphate (TCP) or calcium phosphate tribasic, CAS No. 7758-87-4) is a calcium salt of phosphoric acid with the chemical formula Ca₃(PO₄)₂. It is widely recognized as a versatile, biocompatible, and white crystalline powder. In nature, it exists in several crystal modifications, primarily the low-temperature beta-phase (β-TCP) and the high-temperature alpha-phase (α-TCP). These phases display distinct dissolution kinetics and structural profiles, making them highly customizable for diverse industrial and pharmaceutical processes.
As a key supplier, YANXA ensures that our tricalcium phosphate products deliver precise particle sizing, consistent bulk density, and minimal heavy metal trace profiles. These factors are critical when formulating food products, biological bone scaffolds, or industrial anticaking systems. Below is an overview of the technical specifications that define high-purity Tribasic Calcium Phosphate:
| Analytical Parameter | Food & Pharmaceutical Grade Specifications | Industrial Grade Specifications |
|---|---|---|
| Assay (as Ca) | 34.0% – 40.0% | ≥ 32.0% |
| Loss on Ignition (L.O.I) | ≤ 8.0% | ≤ 10.0% |
| Fluoride (F) | ≤ 50 ppm | ≤ 150 ppm |
| Arsenic (As) | ≤ 3 ppm | ≤ 10 ppm |
| Lead (Pb) | ≤ 2 ppm | ≤ 10 ppm |
| Solubility | Practically insoluble in water and ethanol; soluble in dilute HCl and HNO₃ | Conforms |
How tricalcium phosphate acts as a vital agent across global markets from food processing to biomedicine.
In food processing, TCP serves as a premier anticaking agent and free-flow aid in powdered drink mixes, milk powders, table salts, and spice blends. It absorbs moisture effectively, preventing clumping. Additionally, it acts as an essential calcium and phosphorus nutrient fortifier in breakfast cereals, flour products, and baby formulas.
Because of its chemical similarity to human bone mineral phases, TCP (specifically β-TCP) is heavily used in bone graft substitutes, dental implants, and bone cements. It is highly osteoconductive and resorbable, facilitating natural bone regeneration. In solid dosage forms, TCP is used as an excipient, tablet binder, and flow regulator.
In chemical industries, TCP acts as a stabilizing agent in suspension polymerizations of vinyl chloride and polystyrene. It is used as a whitening and opacifying agent in ceramics and enamelware. In agriculture, it enhances slow-release phosphate fertilizers and serves as a vital calcium supplement in animal feed formulations.
