Dipotassium Phosphate (DKP) Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- DKP
- Dipotassium Hydrogen Phosphate
- Potassium Phosphate Dibasic
- K2HPO4
Dipotassium phosphate supplier for food, beverage, agriculture and industrial buyers in Malaysia. Also called DKP, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, potassium phosphate dibasic and K2HPO4, this dibasic salt is a white crystalline powder, highly water-soluble, and alkaline in dilute solution.
Commercial grades include food grade for buffering and emulsifying, technical grade for process chemistry, and fertiliser grade for soluble nutrient programmes. Typical reference values for the solid include CAS 7758-11-4, formula K2HPO4, and a 1% solution pH around 8.2 to 9.6.
Food and beverage manufacturers use food-grade DKP in non-dairy creamers, processed cheese and powdered drinks. Agriculture uses fertiliser-grade material as a chloride-free phosphorus and potassium source for fertigation and foliar feed, while technical grades support industrial buffering and related manufacturing processes.
Send the required grade, application, target specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials. Control dust, wear gloves and eye protection when handling, and follow the safety information for the quoted grade.
Common questions about dipotassium phosphate
Is dipotassium phosphate the same as mono potassium phosphate (MKP)?
No. Dipotassium phosphate (DKP, K2HPO4) is the dibasic salt and gives an alkaline solution, typically pH 8.2 to 9.6 at 1%. Mono potassium phosphate (MKP, KH2PO4) is a different product with its own page. Order the salt named on the specification.
Which DKP grade should I request?
Request food grade for food and beverage buffering or emulsifying use, technical grade for industrial process chemistry, or fertiliser grade for fertigation and foliar programmes. State the application and any assay or impurity limits so the quotation can match the requirement.
What is dipotassium phosphate used for in food and beverage?
Food-grade DKP is commonly used as a buffering agent and emulsifier. Typical applications include non-dairy creamers, processed cheese and powdered beverages, where it helps hold pH and stabilise fat and protein systems.
Can dipotassium phosphate be used as a fertiliser?
Yes. Fertiliser-grade DKP supplies both phosphorus and potassium in a fully water-soluble form suited to fertigation and foliar feed. Send crop programme details, preferred grade and quantity with the enquiry.
What specifications should a buyer provide for DKP?
State the grade, intended application and any required limits for assay, pH, moisture, heavy metals or particle size. For an existing formulation, include the current specification so the requested material can be matched more closely.
How is dipotassium phosphate priced and packed?
Price depends on grade, specification, quantity and packing. List the preferred pack format and delivery location in the enquiry. Packing options, availability and commercial details are confirmed with the quotation.
