Narendra Pal Singh Chauhan
Abstract
Polyphosphate (poly P) is one of the several molecules on the Earth that effectively store energy within their covalent bonds, Polyphosphate (polyp) is an ester of many structural units of tetrahedral phosphate connected together by highenergy phosphoanhydride bonds. It is found in high abundance in living and nonliving things. In this chapter, we discuss about the chemistry of polyphosphates and their applications for the material community in various purposes like water softening agent, composite materials in engineering, flame retardant, antidrug delivery for cancer, high-performance polymer, biomedical field, food industry, and amphiphilic grafted hyperbranched polymers.
