Food Grade Citric Acid
1)CAS:77-92-9
2)Molecular Formula:C6H8O7
3)Appearance:White Crystal
Physical Properties:
In room temperature, citric acid is colorless translucent crystals or white particles or white crystalloid powder, o
dourless, has extremely acid flavour, in the damp air, has slightly deliquation. It can exist with the form of non-hydrate or monohydrate:when citric acid crystallizes from hot water, generating non-hydrate crystals;however,when it crystallizes from cold water,generating monohydrate crystals. When it is heated to
78 centigrade degree, monohydrate decomposes to become non-hydrate. In 15 degrees centigrade,citric acid can also be dissolved in anhydrous alcohol.
Main Usage:
Citric Acid is a kind of important organic acid,because of its physical characteristic,chemical characteristic a
nd derivative characteristic,is widely used for food industry,medicine,daily products etc.
Food industry:
Due to Citric Acid has mild and invigorating sour,is widely used for manufacturing various kinds of beverage,
soda water, wine, candy,dessert,biscuit, canned fruit juice, dairy products etc.In all the market of organic acid,

and promote calcium, phosphorus material digestion and absorption in the body.Anhydrous citric acid is used
extensively for solid drink.Citric acid salts like citric acid calcium and citric acid iron are fortifier agent in some
foods which need to add calcium ions and iron ions.Tricaprylyl citrate such as triethyl citrate can be used for material
of non-toxic plasticizer, can make plastic film for food wrapping, is a drink and food industry sour agent.
