Monocalcium Phosphate (MCP) is widely used in the animal feed and animal care industries as a vital source of phosphorus and calcium, essential for the healthy growth, bone development, and metabolic functions of livestock and poultry. In the food and beverage industry, MCP serves as a leavening agent in baked goods like cakes, pastries, and biscuits, helping dough rise and maintain structure by releasing carbon dioxide when combined with baking soda. Its dual functionality makes it valuable in both nutritional and processing applications.
