Disodium pyrophosphate is a popular leavening agent found in baking powders. It combines with sodium bicarbonate to release carbon dioxide. It is available in a variety of grades that affect the speed of its action.

It is used in canned seafood to maintain color and reduce purge during retorting. Retorting achieves microbial stability with heat. In cured meats, it speeds the conversion of sodium nitrite to nitrite (NO2-) by forming the nitrous acid (HONO) intermediate, and can improve water-holding capacity. Disodium pyrophosphate is also found in frozen hash browns and other potato products, where it is used to keep the color of the potatoes from darkening.
