Name:Citric Acid anhydrous/monohydrate
CAS No.: 77-92-9
Appearance:Colorless Crystals or White Crystalline Powders
Product Description:
Citric acid (CA), also known as citric acid, with the molecular formula C6H8O7, is an important organic weak acid. It is a colorless crystal, odorless, easily soluble in water, and the solution appears 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), seasoning agent, and chelating agent.
Molecular formula:C6H8O7
Molecular weight:192.12
Character:Colorless or white crystalline particles or powder. Odorless and extremely sour.
Executive Standard:GB1886.235-2016
The main purpose:It is mainly used in the food and beverage industry as a sour agent, flavoring agent, preservative and preservative. It is also used as an antioxidant, plasticizer and detergent in the chemical industry, cosmetic industry and washing industry.
Store:Store in a dry, ventilated, non-polluting environment, avoid direct sunlight, and not easy to stack in the open. It should be used as soon as possible after opening, otherwise it will be prone to biochemical agglomeration.
