Calcium acid phosphate
editI have some baking powder that says it contains calcium acid phosphate, but there's no Wikipedia article about this compound. Badagnani 04:39, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Apparently Calcium acid phosphate (CAS# 7757-93-9), CaH04P, is not the same as Acid calcium phosphate (CAS# [cited in this Wikipedia article]), Ca(H2PO4, i.e., CaH4P2O8. I am curious, therefore, as to why both of those names appear under alternate names in this article. Simply check it against the chemistry website where this article gets the CAS number.

Continued Typographical Error
editOn many food packages, I see this compound misspelled as "Monoclacium Phosphate," with the L and A transposed in the first word. It seems to be such a widespread error that I am having trouble finding packages WITHOUT the error. Anyone have a clue how this could have transpired, and continued propogating? -Ubiquitous42 (talk) 13:00, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
- Gad, I get 624 ghits for "Monoclacium Phosphate" so you are right, it's quite a well propagated error. Andrewa (talk) 15:29, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
Double superphosphate
editI would like us to have an entry (probably a redirect to a section) for double superphosphate, currently a redlink with no incoming links but the phrase appears in two articles, at Phosphate mining in the United States#Uranium and Fertilizer#Single nutrient ("straight") fertilizers.
See https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Encyclopedia_Americana_(1920)/Fertilizers but I'm not sure that qualifies as a suitable source. Andrewa (talk) 15:25, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- We now have triple superphosphate, which is more prevalent than the double superphosphate.--Smokefoot (talk) 17:54, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- Good catch! Perhaps Double superphosphate should redirect to a section of that article, if it has superseded it? Andrewa (talk) 04:22, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
