Product Description
Pure citric acid powder is white crystalline fine powder, odourless and readily soluble in water. It acts as an effective acidulant to adjust and stabilize pH value in formulations, serves as a chelating agent to bind metal ions and improve product stability, functions as flavour enhancer to bring fresh sour taste for food & beverage, works as antioxidant synergist to slow down oxidation and extend shelf life, and is widely applied as cleaning agent raw material for descaling and stain removal. It has CAS No.77-92-9 for anhydrous grade and features good compatibility with most raw materials in cosmetic, food and cleaning formulas. It can be stored in sealed containers under cool and dry conditions to avoid caking, it is non-toxic and biodegradable under normal usage scenarios, it has stable chemical properties and will not easily decompose at room temperature, and it is available in food grade and cosmetic grade to meet different industry requirements. It is produced by corn fermentation with high purity and low impurity content. It complies with common international standards including USP, FCC and E330. It has broad global market demand as a versatile bio-based additive.

Functions and Effects
Citric acid acts as an efficient acidulant to regulate and stabilize pH in various formulations. It serves as a powerful chelating agent that captures metal ions and enhances the stability of end products. It delivers a clean sour taste and works as a flavor booster for food and beverage applications. It also acts as an antioxidant synergist to retard oxidation and prolong shelf life. It can remove limescale and stains, making it widely used in cleaning formulations. It exhibits good compatibility with most raw materials for cosmetics, food and household products. It helps reduce discoloration caused by metal ion contamination and improves the sensory performance of finished goods. It is safe for regular use and biodegradable under natural environmental conditions. It can improve the efficiency of preservatives in cosmetic and food systems. It assists in adjusting the texture of food products during processing. It reduces the precipitation of active ingredients in liquid formulas. It helps soften water by binding calcium and magnesium ions. It supports gentle exfoliation when applied in skincare products.

Application Fields
Citric acid is extensively applied in food and beverage industry as acidity regulator and flavor modifier. It is widely added into cosmetic and personal care products for pH adjustment and skin conditioning. It serves as key raw material for household cleaners, detergents and descaling agents. It is used in pharmaceutical manufacturing for formulation adjustment and excipient preparation. It finds application in water treatment to chelate mineral ions and soften water. It can be used in feed industry to improve animal feed palatability. It is adopted in electroplating and textile processing for metal ion control. It is also applied in battery material production and agricultural nutrient formulations. It works in industrial metal surface cleaning and rust removal processes. It is used in biotech fermentation to maintain stable broth pH. It can be incorporated into oral care products for mild stain removal. It applies to concrete additives to adjust setting time. It is used in extraction processes of natural plant active ingredients.
