Phosphorus Pentoxide-Derived Polyphosphoric Acid from China
Polyphosphoric acid produced by dissolving diphosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) in phosphoric acid, forming chains of (HPO3)n. It is used in cyclization reactions and as a dehydrating agent, classified in HTS 2809.20.00.40 as polyphosphoric acids.

Import Tips
• Provide manufacturing process details or NMR spectra confirming polyphosphoric structure
• Store and ship in moisture-proof containers to prevent hydrolysis to orthophosphoric acid
• Label with exact H3PO4 equivalent percentage for CBP verification
