Description
Sodium Citrate is an odorless, white crystalline powder or granules with a cool, salty taste, stable in air. It is produced by neutralizing citric acid with sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate, followed by concentration and crystallization. The product has a minimum purity of 99% and is easily soluble in water, forming an aqueous solution with a pH of about 8. Its molecular formula is C6H9NaO7, with a molecular weight of 216.12. Sodium Citrate loses its water of crystallization at 150°C and decomposes upon further heating. For purchasers, its properties as a buffering agent, emulsifier, and stabilizer are crucial, as is its safety and non-toxicity. The product is supplied with full documentation confirming its compliance with international quality and safety standards.
Applications
Widely used in the food industry as an acidity regulator, emulsifier, and stabilizer in beverages, dairy products, and confectionery.
