Ultrafine,
food grade sodium chloride is produced by micropulverizing
vacuum granulated salt. Salt particles are jagged fragments of
cubes, exhibiting an extremely high specific surface area and low
bulk density. Ultrafine (<10 µm) tricalcium phosphate
is added to prevent caking, but the products do not readily free-flow
and tend to be exceptionally dusty.
Two grinds are produced: 1) Extra Fine 200 ground to less than 200 mesh (75 microns) and 2) Extra Fine 325 to less than 325 mesh (45 microns).
Tricalcium phosphate is water insoluble at neutral pH, slightly soluble in acid solution. It has GRAS approval as an anti-caking agent and is exempt from label declaration on foods incorporating the salt as an incidental, nonfunctional additive under 21 CFR 101.100 (a)(3).
