Food Chemical AND Additives Citric Acid (Monohydrous and Anhydrous)
Citric acid is a weak organic acid. It is a natural preservative and is also used to add an acidic, or sour, taste to foods and soft drinks. In biochemistry, it is important as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle and therefore occurs in the metabolism of virtually all living things. It can also be used as an environmentally benign cleaning agent. EINECS:201-069-1 CAS code:77-92-9
description Colorless or white crystalline powder Critric acid is made from starch by advanced biological technology,It is a white crystalline powder.It can exist either in anhydrous(water-free)from or monohydrate.The anhydrous from crystallizes from hot water,whereas the monohydrate forms when Citric acid is crystallized form cold water. When heated above 175'C, it decomposes through the loss of carbon dioxide and water.
Citric Acid is mainly used as flavoring agent, preservative and antistaling agent in food and beverage industry. Ensign and TTCA specialize in the production of citric acid series products, including citric acid monohydrate, citric acid anhydrous, sodium citrate, potassium citrate, calcium citrate and more. They have been exported to more than 100 countries and regions.

Product Name: Citric Acid Monohydrate Molecular Formula: C6H10O8 Molecular Weight: 210.14 Appearance: White Crystalline Powder Purity: 99% CAS Number: 5949-29-1 EINECS number: 200-662-2 Mesh: 12-100 Standard: BP/USP/FCC/E330/GB1886.235-2016 Supplier: ZHENYIBIO Usageï¼?Citric Acid Monohydrate is used as an Acidulate, Food additive, Pharmaceutical application and as a synergist in antioxidant mixtures. Citric Acid Monohydrate is a tricarboxylic acid found in citrus fruits. Citric acid is used as an excipient in pharmaceutical preparations due to its antioxidant properties. It maintains stability of active ingredients and is used as a preservative. It is also used as an acidulant to control pH and acts as an anticoagulant by chelating calcium in blood. Applications: Citric acid (as either the monohydrate or anhydrous material) is widely used in pharmaceutical formulations and food products, primarily to adjust the pH of solutions. It has also been used experimentally to adjust the pH of tablet matrices in enteric-coated formulations for colon-specific drug delivery. Citric acid monohydrate is used in the preparation of effervescent granules, while anhydrous citric acid is widely used in the preparation of effervescent tablets. Citric acid has also been shown to improve the stability of spray-dried insulin powder in inhalation formulations.
Citric Acid Anhydrous, E330, CAS no.77-92-9, Colorless crystals or white crystalline powder soluble in water, Citric acid is a natural occurring fruit acid, manufacturing process via chemical synthesis. Citric acid is the most widely used organic acid and pH-control agent in foods, beverages and pharmaceuticals applications.
