Product Description:
Citric acid: also known as citric acid (CA), is an important weak organic acid with the molecular formula C 6 H 8 O 7 . It is a colorless crystal that is odorless and easily soluble in water, giving it an acidic appearance when dissolved. In biochemistry, it serves as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle (also known as the tricarboxylic acid cycle), which is an essential process in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms.
Applications: One of the main uses of citric acid is as an acidity regulator (regulated by GB2760-2014), which helps adjust pH levels in various food products. It is also commonly used as a seasoning agent and chelating agent in cooking and food preservation. Additionally, citric acid has a wide range of industrial applications, including as a cleaning agent, water softener, and ingredient in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

Applications:
The food industry is one of the largest and most diverse industries in the world, constantly striving to innovate and meet the demands of consumers. Within this industry, citric acid holds a significant role as the most abundant organic acid produced through biochemical methods. This versatile substance and its various salts are considered to be essential products in the fermentation sector, with a wide range of applications in the food industry.
Citric acid is commonly utilized as an acid flavoring agent, solvent, buffering agent, antioxidant, deodorizer, flavor enhancer, gelling agent, and coloring agent in food production. It is particularly in demand for its use in carbonated and fruit juices, lactic acid drinks, pickled products, and other cool drinks. Its utilization also fluctuates due to seasonal changes in climate. In fact, citric acid makes up approximately two-thirds of the total consumption of acid flavoring agents. When added to canned fruits, it serves as a preservative and improves their flavor, while maintaining their acidity and inhibiting the growth of microorganisms. In candies, it acts as an acidity agent that complements fruit flavor. Additionally, the use of citric acid in products such as gel food, jam, and jelly helps to reduce the negative charge of pectin, allowing for better gelling. In canned vegetables, citric acid not only adds flavor, but also serves as a pH regulator to maintain quality. Its chelating properties also make it effective in extending the shelf life of frozen foods during processing.
Aside from its use in the food industry, citric acid is also widely utilized in the metal cleaning industry. It is produced through microbial fermentation and is known for its specificity and chelating effect. Its practical use has proven to be safe due to its production from food grade microorganisms derived from grains. In addition, citric acid is environmentally friendly as it is easily biodegradable and non-toxic. Its strong chelating properties are particularly beneficial in cleaning products, as it is able to bind to manganese and iron ions. Furthermore, its relatively weak acidity minimizes the risk of equipment corrosion, making it a suitable and reliable option for chemical cleaning. Its waste disposal is also relatively simple and does not pose a threat to human health or the environment.
