Sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaPH₂O₄) is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the phosphate family, commonly encountered as a hydrated salt in powder or crystalline form. It is primarily used in industrial applications requiring phosphate functionality, including fertilizer formulations, food additives (buffering and leavening agents), laboratory reagents, and specialty ceramic precursors. While not a structural ceramic like alumina or zirconia, NaPH₂O₄ is valued in industries where controlled phosphate chemistry and mild acidic buffering are needed, and has research interest as a precursor material for advanced phosphate ceramics and biocompatible composites.
