Product Description
Citric acid is an important weak organic acid with the chemical formula C6H8O7. It appears as colorless crystals or white crystalline powder, is odorless, has an extremely sour taste, and is highly soluble in water and ethanol. Below is a detailed introduction to citric acid products:Product Characteristics
• Pure and Refreshing Sour Taste: Citric acid has a mild and refreshing sour taste. Its sourness intensity is 1.3 times that of tartaric acid, 1.9 times that of lactic acid, 1.5 times that of malic acid, and 1.2 times that of sulfuric acid. It provides a pleasant sour sensation and is currently the most widely produced organic acid in the world using biochemical methods.
• High Safety: Citric acid is a natural organic acid that is widely found in plant fruits and animal bones, muscles, and blood. Its production raw materials come from grains, and it is considered a safe food-grade microorganism that is harmless to the human body.
• Strong Chelating Ability: Citric acid and its salts have excellent chelating properties, capable of forming stable complexes with various metal ions, such as sodium citrate and potassium citrate. They are used in a variety of chemical reactions and industrial applications.

Application
Food Industry:
• Acidulant: Citric acid is one of the commonly used acidulants in the food industry. It is widely applied in the production of products such as beverages, candies, jams, and jellies, imparting an acidic taste and a refreshing flavor to food.
• Antioxidant: Citric acid has certain antioxidant properties. It can be used for the preservation and anti-corrosion of food, extending the shelf life of food products.
• pH Regulator: During food processing, citric acid can be used to adjust the acidity or alkalinity of food, bringing it to an appropriate pH level to ensure the quality and taste of the food.
• Chemical Reagents: Citric acid can be used as an experimental reagent, chromatographic analysis reagent, and biochemical reagent in chemical technology. It also serves as a chelating agent and a masking agent, and is used to prepare buffer solutions.
• Textile Finishing: Citric acid can act as a formaldehyde-free dyeing and finishing agent, enhancing the performance of textiles or imparting properties such as water and oil repellency to the fabrics.
• Detergents: The use of citric acid or its salts as detergent builders can improve the performance of cleaning products. It can rapidly precipitate metal ions, prevent pollutants from re-attaching to fabrics, maintain the necessary alkalinity for washing, disperse and suspend dirt and ash, and enhance the performance of surfactants. It is an excellent chelating agent.
