Description
Citric Acid Anhydrous is usually a white crystalline powder or colorless, translucent crystal, odorless, with a strong acid taste. Anhydrous citric acid is highly soluble in water and ethanol and slightly soluble in ether. Its aqueous solution is strongly acidic.
Advantages:
Citric Acid Anhydrous provides a pleasant, refreshing, natural sour taste and is the most commonly used acidity regulator in food and beverages.
Anhydrous citric acid significantly reduces the pH of products and creates an acidic environment, which is essential for flavor, corrosion protection, texture, and processing.
Citric Acid Anhydrous is easy to dissolve in a variety of solvents and is convenient to use.

Application
Sour taste agent:
Anhydrous citric acid provides a refreshing, pleasurable sour taste and is an indispensable ingredient in carbonated drinks, fruit juices, candies, jams, jellies, canned foods, and more. Anhydrous citric acid enhances fruit flavor and balances sweetness.
Preservative:
Anhydrous citric acid reduces the pH value, inhibits the growth of microorganisms and prolongs the shelf life of food.
Antioxidant synergist:
Anhydrous citric acid acts synergistically with antioxidants to enhance its antioxidant effect and prevent oxidative rancid in oils and oily foods.
Chelating agent:
Anhydrous citric acid can chelate metal ions, prevent these ions from catalyzing oxidation reaction or causing food color and taste change, and prevent cut fruits and vegetables from Browning.
Emulsifying agent:
Anhydrous citric acid is used in processed cheese production to help the fat spread evenly.
Leavening agent:
In baked goods, anhydrous citric acid reacts with baking soda to produce carbon dioxide gas, which causes the dough to expand.
pH regulator:
Anhydrous citric acid is used to regulate the acidity of food products to achieve the desired taste, stability and processing requirements.
