|
Colorless orthorhombic columnar crystal is stable in air with relative density of 1.859. It is soluble in water and glycerin, slightly soluble in ethanol. The water solution is slightly alkaline and has a cool feeling when tasting. When heated to 100 ℃, it becomes dihydrate. The latter is colorless monoclinic columnar crystal or granular powder, which is easily soluble in water. It becomes anhydrous at 1450 ℃, and decomposes at higher temperature. It is commonly used as buffer, complexing agent and bacterial culture medium. It is used for diuresis, expectorant, sweating, preventing blood coagulation in medicine, as well as in food, beverage, electroplating and photography.
Application area : Sodium citrate has a variety of excellent properties, so it has a wide range of applications. Sodium citrate is non-toxic, has pH adjustment performance and good stability, so it can be used in food industry. Sodium citrate is used as food additive with the largest demand. It is mainly used as seasoning agent, buffer, emulsifier, expansion agent, stabilizer and preservative. In addition, sodium citrate is compatible with citric acid and used as gelling agent, nutritional supplement and flavor agent for jam, jelly, juice, beverage, cold drink, dairy products and cakes. ü Food Sodium citrate is mainly used as food additive, with the largest demand. It can also be used as seasoning agent, expansion agent, stabilizer, preservative, buffer, emulsifier, etc.; in addition, sodium citrate and citric acid can be used as flavor agent, gelling agent and nutritional supplement for various cakes, cold drinks, juice, drinks, cold drinks, dairy products and jam. ü Medicine Sodium citrate as a long-acting anticoagulant has been developed, so that blood can be preserved for a longer time. Sodium citrate also has an antiseptic effect and is used to preserve some drugs. ü Construction industry In the construction industry, sodium citrate can be added as a retarder when making concrete, which can improve the frost resistance, compression resistance and tensile properties of cement products; ü Electroplating and manufacturing Because sodium citrate has a good complexing property, it is also used in electroplating industry. ü Industrial cleaning Because of the characteristics of sodium citrate, adding it to detergents can improve the decontamination effect, sodium citrate has been widely used in the manufacture of phosphate free washing powder and liquid detergent. Studies have shown that the special cleaning agent containing sodium citrate is non corrosive, so some precision instruments can also be cleaned with this special cleaning agent. People pay more and more attention to food safety. In order to remove pesticide residues, a special detergent containing sodium citrate has been developed to clean vegetables and fruits. With the deepening of research, the use of sodium citrate is more and more. |
