Application

In food industry

• Drinks: Citric acid juice is one of the natural ingredients, not only give the fruit flavor, but also solubilization buffer, antioxidant effect, the drink sugar, flavor, pigment and other ingredients blend of coordination, formation of harmonic taste and aroma, can increase resistance the antiseptic effect of microorganisms.

• Jam and jelly: Regulating pH and to give the product sour, pH must be adjusted to the most suitable for pectin condensation of very narrow range.

• Candy: Increasing the acidity and prevent the oxidation of various components and sucrose crystallization.

• Frozen food: Citric acid has the characteristics of chelating and regulating pH, can strengthen the role of antioxidants and enzyme inactivation, can more reliably ensure the stability of frozen food.

In pharmaceutical industry

• Citric acid and sodium carbonate solution common reaction produce large quantities of CO2 and sodium citrate, can quickly dissolve and enhance the ability to taste the active pharmaceutical ingredient.

• Citric acid syrup is fever patients with soft drinks, flavoring, cool and detoxification effect.

• Citric acid is widely used in a variety of nutrient oral liquid, buffer pH is 3.5~4.5, maintaining the stability of the active ingredient, strengthen the preservative effect.

In industry

• Metal purification: Using citric acid as the base metal cleaning formula, can effectively remove the oxides formed on the surface of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

• Detergent: Sodium citrate could increase decontamination performance.

• Non soil cultivation: Citric acid can remove some copper in soil, excess zinc, manganese, chromium and other elements.

• Minerals and pigments: Citric acid has distributed performance, reducing the viscosity of some important slurry raw material.
