Dipotassium phosphate (K2HPO4) (also dipotassium hydrogen orthophosphate; potassium phosphate dibasic) is a highly water-soluble saltwhich is often used as a fertilizer, food additive and buffering agent. It is a common source of phosphorus and potassium.
Dipotassium Phosphate (DKP) is an effective buffering agent and sequesterant for a variety of uses functioning as a balancing agent. DKP when used as a food additive or preservative is highly effective in preventing coagulation, and is commonly used in the non-dairy creamer market as a buffering agent.
