Citric Acid Fine Granular USP Food Grade

 CITRIC ACID FINE GRANULAR USP FOOD GRADE

Citric Acid fine granular, is a  widely used weak organic acid. It is  found in  many foods nad beverages and in many commercial and industrial processes and technical applications. In food, it is popular since it adds a 'sour' taste or "ZING"  to products, especially candies and confectionaries. 

In  chemical processes it is used as a weak acid, and to lower pH. 

Around the home citric acid is used in cleaners as a weak chelate or to reduce the pH in cleaners where acidity adds the ability to help eliminate surface grime and  mineral deposits for example. 

Typical Uses  of citric acid, both granular and in solution are:

  • Food, Candy, Confectionary
  • Beverages (pH)
  • Water and wastewater pH adjustments
  • Water conditioning
  • Pet/Animal Feed
  • Oil Well Cementing
  • pH Control
  • Chelate

The CAS number is  77-92-9

Synonyms: of citric acid are , sour salt, and just "citric"

Appearance: White Crystalline Fine Granular

Formula - C6H8O7

Solubility - Citric acid is easily Soluble in Water

N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP) uses, applicaitons, and sourcing

N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP) N-Methylpyrrolidone is a colorless to slightly yellow liquid with a mild amine odor. It is very versatile since is it miscible with water and various solvents. N-Methylpyrrolidone, also known by the synonym NMP, is a  versatile, effective solvent that in many applications replaces dangerous solvents and solvents that are or were ozone depleting. It  used in numerous commercial/industrial applications as a co-solvent with water, alcohols and other organic substances.  used as a cleaner and degreaser and in many other applications. It is often used in specialty resins, stripping epoxy, as a pigment dispersant, plastics, textiles,  agrochemicals. In the electronics/ microelectronics industry specifically it is often used as a process solvent for  cleaning silicon wafers, removing marker dyes and soldering flux residues from circuit boards. One advantage of NMP   is that it is not on the Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs) list of the...

What is pH, Using pH test strips

What is pH pH paper, pH testing strips and how to use them What is pH and When to use pH strips and how to use them ph Definition :  pH simply explained, is a logarithmic scale and inversely indicates the concentration of hydrogen ions to measure  the relative amount of free hydrogen and hydroxyl ions.   pH measurements utilize a scale from  0 to 14 to specify acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.  On one side of the pH scale are the acids, and the other side of the scale  is considered alkaline also called "base." Acidic solutions are when measured and they have lower pH values. Strong acids are typically considered to be at pH of 0 to about 4.0 and become weaker up to what are considered mild acids at around 6.0 pH. Neutral is 6.5 to 7.3. Base solutions, also called alkaline on the pH scale are from about 7.4 to strong alkaline above 9.0 up to 14. (These descriptions of pH are relative depending on several factors.) Water that ha...

PROPYLENE GLYCOL USES, SPECIFICATIONS, and WHERE TO BUY

PROPYLENE GLYCOL: COMMON USES, SPECIFICATIONS, and WHERE TO BUY  Propylene glycol Propylene glycol  is a near odorless, clear, colorless, viscous liquid,  and which possesses a faintly sweet taste. The chemical formula is CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 OH.   Propylene glycol, also known by the abbreviation, PG,  is widely used since it is miscible water and a  broad range of other solvents, acetone, and chloroform. Like most glycols, PG, in general is non-irritating and has low  volatility.  The CAS number for Propylene Glycol is  57-55-6 PG is major industrial chemical and it is produced on a large scale primarily for the production of polymers, and  as a very useful intermediate for other chemicals. In 2019 nearly 2  million metric tons were produced.   It is used in all kinds of commerical, industrial and even sme home uses. PG is  used in making aircraft deicing fluids, and also has uses in applications like home and a...
