For fodders, there are many kinds of elements indispensible. Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate os also widely used in it.
What is Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate (DCPD)?
Dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD), or CaHPO4·2H2O, is a leavening salt that transfers into an acid when it contacts water and heat. This allows its reaction with bases to produce gas in batter-based products, such as cakes or muffins.
One of the characteristics of DCPD is its slow rate of reaction. It reacts with baking soda during the late stages of baking. That’s why it’s known as a heat-triggered leavening acid.
Besides, there are some others have to be mentioned like amino acid, choline chloride, carotenoid, antioxidant, mould inhibitor, feed enzymes and other plant proteins.
