China price Ensign citric acid anhydrous food grade ttca rzbc cas no 77-92-9 lemon acid anhydrous citric acid monohydrate

Citric acid, also known as citric acid, is an important organic weak acid, colorless crystal, odorless, easily soluble in water, the solution is acidic. In biochemistry, it is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle (tricarboxylic acid cycle), which occurs in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms. Citric acid is widely used as an acidity regulator (GB2760-2014), flavoring agent and chelating agent

Product parameters

Features & Application

Citric acid monohydrate: colorless crystals or white crystalline powder.

Anhydrous citric acid: colorless translucent crystals or white granules, or white crystalline powder

Sodium citrate: colorless crystals or white crystalline powder. Salty and refreshing.

Sour agent content ≥99% 25kg/bag "Food: beverages, canned food, dairy products;

Use performance
Cosmetics: (emulsion, whitening products); food: mostly used in solid beverages; cosmetics (emulsion, whitening products); mainly used in food and beverage industries as sour agents, flavoring agents, preservatives, and preservatives. It is also used as antioxidant, plasticizer and detergent in chemical industry, cosmetic industry and washing industry.

Should range (mainly food)

I n terms of food additives, citric acid anhydrous is mainly used in carbonated beverages, fruit juice beverages, lactic acid beverages and other refreshing beverages and pickled products. Citric acid, as a pH adjuster, can not only play a flavoring role, but also maintain its quality.

The corrosion inhibition performance of citric acid in detergents is also outstanding, such as cleaning metal containers, pipes, and water dispensers. Since the acidity of citric acid is relatively weak, the safety and reliability of cleaning are relatively strong, and the waste liquid is also relatively easy to handle.

Citric acid can stimulate the taste bud cells in the mouth to secrete saliva, which acts as a flavoring agent. It can regulate the PH value in the stomach and intestines, promoting animal appetite and absorption of nutrients.

Food industry
Citric acid is the world's largest organic acid produced by biochemical methods, citric acid and salts are one of the pillar products of fermentation industry, mainly used in the food industry, such as acid, solvent, buffer, antioxidant, deodorant, flavor enhancer, gelling-agent, toner and so on

Metal cleaning
Citric acid is an organic acid produced by microbial fermentation, which is widely used in the production of detergent, and its own specificity and chelation play an active role. Citric acid in the actual use of the process, has a good performance, mainly in terms of safety is more prominent, the preparation of citric acid raw materials are derived from food, which is safe food grade microorganisms. The use of citric acid will not affect the environment, it is easy to degrade under the action of microorganisms and heat, and its own chelating ability is also relatively strong. The main citrate has a strong chelating ability for manganese ion and iron ion, and the use effect is also relatively prominent. The corrosion inhibition of citric acid in detergent is also more prominent, pickling as a more important link in chemical cleaning, compared with inorganic acid, the acidity of citric acid is relatively weak, so the corrosion of the equipment is relatively small, the safety and reliability of citric acid cleaning is relatively strong, the waste liquid is also relatively easy to deal with, and will not cause harm to the human body
