Citric acid is a natural fruit acid, expertly derived through a sophisticated process of microbial fermentation using a carbohydrate substrate. This method ensures purity and potency.
Citric acid is renowned as the most universally utilized organic acid. It serves as an effective pH-control agent across a diverse range of industries, including food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and beyond.
Citric acid anhydrous appears as lustrous, colorless crystals or pristine white, crystalline powder, offering a distinctly acidic taste. It boasts excellent solubility in water, is freely soluble in ethanol (96%), and sparingly soluble in ether, making it versatile for various applications.
Citric acid anhydrous is characterized by its non-toxic nature and low reactivity. It remains chemically stable when stored at ambient temperatures. Moreover, it is fully biodegradable, allowing for eco-friendly disposal with normal waste or sewage systems.
