In order to alleviate the major problem of microbial growth and colouration in L-arginine phosphate (LAP), the use of potassium fluoride (KF), a new additive having higher dipole moment, has been proposed. The stabilities of the pure and KF mixed LAP solution at different temperatures have been determined. Pure and KF mixed LAP crystals were grown by the temperature lowering technique. The presence of potassium in the crystal was identified by inductively coupled plasma analysis (ICP). The lattice parameters for the grown crystals were determined from X-ray powder diffraction. The molecular vibration and thermal behaviour of KF mixed LAP were found from Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermal analysis (DTA & TGA) respectively.
