Uses
Disodium pyrophosphate (CAS NO.7758-16-9) is a buffering and chelating agent, with many food and industrial uses.
Food uses:
Used in canned seafood to maintain color and reduce purge during retorting. In cured meats, it speeds the conversion of sodium nitrite to NO2- by forming the HONO intermediate, and can improve water holding capacity.
It also used to keep the color of the potatoes from darkening.so it is found in frozen hash browns and other potato products.
Industrial uses:
In leather treatment, it can be used to remove iron stains on hides during processing.
It also can be used with sulfamic acid in some dairy applications for cleaning, especially to remove soapstone.
In petroleum production, it can be used as a dispersant in oil well drilling muds.
