Product Description
Food - grade ammonium bicarbonate appears as a white crystalline powder. Although odorless in a strict sense, it has a characteristic scent. Its chemical formula is NH4HCO3. This compound is highly soluble in water and makes the resulting aqueous solution alkaline.
As a food additive, it is mainly used as a leavening agent in the production of baked goods such as bread and biscuits. When heated, ammonium bicarbonate decomposes into carbon dioxide and water. This decomposition reaction is crucial as it enables food to develop a light and porous texture, thus improving its flavor. Additionally, it can function, to some extent, as a pH regulator, maintaining an appropriate pH value during food processing. Besides, it also serves as a processing aid in the manufacturing of beverages and dairy products.

Application
In food processing, food - grade ammonium bicarbonate acts as a pH regulator. It has the ability to modify the pH of food items. In certain food manufacturing procedures where there is a high level of acidity, the addition of an appropriate quantity of ammonium bicarbonate can counteract the acidity. This action effectively brings the food's pH value within a suitable range.
Take the production of certain jams or preserved fruits as an example. When the raw fruits possess high acidity, the introduction of ammonium bicarbonate serves a dual purpose. Firstly, it adjusts the acidity. Secondly, during the reaction, it generates carbon dioxide gas. This gas is beneficial as it helps expel oxygen from the fruit tissue, thereby playing a role in the preservation of the fruit - based products.
