Caution
The sodium version of triphosphoric acid is Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP), often known as sodium triphosphate.
A variety of cleaning products contain sodium tripolyphosphate. It helps the detergent's different chemicals penetrate deeper into the fibres of garments (as well as other surfaces and materials to be cleaned) and aids in foaming and bubbling.
