Application
- For use in the food industry
Because citric acid has a mild and refreshing sour taste, it is commonly used in the manufacture of various beverages, soft drinks, wine, candy, snacks, biscuits, canned juices, dairy products and other foods. In all organic acid markets, citric acid has a market share of more than 70%, and so far there is no sour agent that can replace citric acid. Monomolecular crystalline water citric acid is mainly used as an acidic flavoring agent for refreshing drinks, juices, jams, fruit sugars and canned food, etc., and canned foods, and can also be used as an antioxidant in edible oils. At the same time, it improves the sensory properties of food, enhances appetite and promotes the digestion and absorption of calcium and phosphorus substances in the body. Citric acid anhydrous is used in large quantities in solid beverages. Citric acid salts such as calcium citrate and iron citrate are fortified agents that require the addition of calcium and iron ions in some foods. Citric acid esters such as triethyl citrate can be used as non-toxic plasticizers, plastic films for food packaging, and are acidulants and preservatives in the beverage and food industries.
