Dicalcium phosphate(DCP) White monoclinic crystalline powder, odorless and tasteless. It usually exists in the form of dihydrate (its chemical formula is CaHPO4 · 2H2O), and it is stable in air. When heated to 75 ℃, it begins to lose its crystal water and becomes anhydrous. At high temperature, it becomes pyrophosphate. Soluble in dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute nitric acid, acetic acid, slightly soluble in water (100 ℃, 0.025%), insoluble in ethanol
