FAQ's of Citric acid anhydrous:


Q: How should I properly store citric acid anhydrous to maintain its quality?

A: Citric acid anhydrous should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from moisture and incompatible substances. Proper storage helps preserve its stability, ensuring it remains effective for up to its two-year shelf life.

Q: What are the primary uses of citric acid anhydrous across industries?

A: This product serves as an acidulant, preservative, pH regulator, and chelating agent. It is commonly employed in food and beverage formulations, pharmaceuticals, cleaning agents, cosmetics, and various industrial applications for its strong acidity and solubility.

Q: When does citric acid anhydrous start to decompose, and what is its melting point?

A: Citric acid anhydrous has a melting point of 153C. It decomposes before boiling, so it should not be exposed to excessive heat during processing or storage to prevent degradation.

Q: What is the process for producing citric acid anhydrous?

A: This organic acid is produced by fermenting molasses or corn. The raw material undergoes controlled fermentation, followed by purification and drying to yield the highly pure, anhydrous crystalline form.

Q: Where can I use citric acid anhydrous as a benefit in food manufacturing?

A: In food processing, citric acid anhydrous is utilized as an acidifying and flavor-enhancing agent. It also acts as a preservative, extending shelf life and maintaining product stability while regulating pH.

Q: What quality specifications ensure citric acid anhydrous is safe for use?

A: The product maintains strict standards: loss on drying at 0.5% max, heavy metals (as Pb) at 5 ppm max, arsenic at 1 ppm, and lead at 0.5 ppm maximum. Purity is certified at 99.5% minimum, ensuring suitability for sensitive applications.
