Description
Dicalcium Phosphate Anhydrous Powder is a fine, white powdered form of calcium hydrogen phosphate without crystal water. Its small particle size gives it excellent blend uniformity and even distribution, making it the preferred grade for wet granulation, capsule filling and homogeneous powder systems where a granular texture is not desired. Like the granular grade, it is sparingly soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol and dissolves in dilute acids, providing calcium and phosphorus in a controlled, formulation-friendly form. The anhydrous structure keeps moisture uptake low, so the powder remains free-flowing and stable during storage. Manufactured to USP specifications with consistent mineral content, it serves as a dependable calcium-phosphorus source and a functional excipient across pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and food applications, with a two-year shelf life for flexible inventory management. It is packed in polyethylene inner bags with compound paper-plastic woven outer bags, net 25 kg, with a two-year shelf life in a dry, ventilated warehouse. Its low moisture content also protects blend stability in humid production sites. In practice the fine powder suspends evenly in wet granulation liquids and packs uniformly into capsules, delivering consistent mineral content per unit. It also works as a calcium carrier in powdered drink sachets. Batch records and test reports are available for every delivery, supporting buyer qualification, regulatory filing and long-term supply relationships. How DCP Anhydrous Powder works: the same anhydrous calcium hydrogen phosphate chemistry as the granular grade, milled to a fine powder that disperses evenly through blends. Fine particles give the grade two advantages: uniform distribution of calcium and phosphorus in every dose, and strong wet-granulation behavior where the powder wets and binds cleanly. The anhydrous structure keeps moisture uptake low, so blends stay dry and free-flowing in humid production environments. Practical guidance: in wet granulation, add the powder to the granulation fluid mix as the mineral diluent; in capsules, it packs uniformly to give consistent fill weight and mineral content; in effervescent and drink powders, its fine grind disperses quickly in water; in toothpaste it acts as a mild abrasive compatible with fluoride; and in food fortification it disperses invisibly in flour and dairy bases. Quality assurance: USP-grade production with assay, loss on ignition, heavy metals and microbiology verified per batch, and full test documentation available for qualification. Packed 25 kg per bag in polyethylene inner plus paper-plastic woven outer layers, with a two-year shelf life under dry, ventilated storage - a dependable mineral excipient for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers. Specification highlights: it is packed in 25kg/bag with a minimum order quantity of 1000kg. Certificates of analysis accompany every shipment, and sample supply, specification customization and flexible payment terms are available for qualified buyers, supported by the standardized seven-step service process from inquiry to after-sales support. Quality system overview: production follows the food-grade or pharmacopeia standards listed in the specification, with defined raw-material sourcing, in-process checks and final release testing on every batch. Purity, heavy-metal and microbiological results are documented, and the complete dossier - specification, certificate of analysis and batch records - is available to support buyer audits and regulatory dossiers. Original packaging is maintained through storage and shipping to protect the product, and shelf life is stated on the specification. Buyers qualify once and rely on the same documented quality for every subsequent order.
Applications
Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it in wet-granulated tablets as a diluent and calcium source, and in capsule filling where fine powders pack uniformly. Nutraceutical brands incorporate it into calcium-phosphorus supplements, bone-support powders and effervescent blends. In food fortification it disperses evenly in flour, powdered beverages and infant cereal, and in oral care it acts as a mild abrasive and polishing agent in toothpastes.
Advantages
The fine powder grade blends homogeneously with other actives, so each tablet or capsule carries a consistent dose of calcium and phosphorus - essential for compliance and label accuracy. Its anhydrous nature keeps the powder dry and free-flowing through humid conditions, reducing lumping and machine fouling. With USP-grade quality, a two-year shelf life and dependable supply, it is a versatile, low-cost mineral excipient for formulation flexibility.
