    Detailed Description of Monohydrate Citric Acid Product


    I. Product Overview

    Monohydrate Citric Acid, with the chemical name 2-hydroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid monohydrate, is a common crystalline form of citric acid. It is widely present in citrus fruits and is produced from starchy or sugary raw materials through fermentation and purification. It is a non-toxic, odorless, and easily water-soluble food-grade and industrial-grade multifunctional additive. Its core characteristics include mild acidity, excellent chelating ability, and biodegradability. It is widely used in various fields such as food, medicine, chemical industry, cosmetics, detergents, and water treatment, with multiple functions including sour taste adjustment, preservation, chelation, and decontamination. It meets relevant national and international quality standards, with high safety and strong applicability.

    This product is of industrial grade and is produced in strict accordance with national standards such as GB 1886.235-2016 and international standards such as BP, USP, and FCC, ensuring high purity, low impurity content, and stable performance to meet the usage needs of different industries.

    II. Core Product Features

    2.1 Physical Features
    Shop Citric acid, citric acid monohydrate, Ensign citric acid, industrial citric acid monohydrate, 5949-29-1-Detailed Image 1
    • Appearance: Colorless or white crystalline granules, crystalline powder, odorless, extremely sour taste, regular crystalline form, no obvious agglomeration, impurities or particles of abnormal color, slightly efflorescent in dry air, and will slowly lose part of the crystal water when exposed to air.
    •  
    • Solubility: Extremely soluble in water, with a solubility of about 1630g/L at 20℃, forming a clear and transparent acidic solution after dissolution; easily soluble in ethanol, soluble in ether, with fast dissolution rate and no obvious residual precipitation. Compared with anhydrous citric acid, it has higher solubility in water and is more suitable for scenarios where water activity needs to be controlled.
    •  
    • Stability: Stable in nature under normal temperature and pressure, not easy to decompose; when heated above 36.6℃, it will lose crystal water and turn into anhydrous citric acid; when heated above 175℃, it will decompose to produce carbon dioxide and water. Avoid high-temperature exposure and severe impact.
    •  
    • Density: The bulk density is about 1.54g/cm³, and the true density is about 1.66g/cm³. The particles are uniform and have good fluidity, which is convenient for storage, transportation and quantitative addition.
    •  
    • Critical dehydration temperature: 36.6℃. Below this temperature, it can stably maintain the crystal water form; above this temperature, dehydration begins.

    2.2 Chemical Characteristics

    • Molecular formula: C₆H₈O₇·H₂O, relative molecular mass 210.14 (calculated according to the 2013 International Relative Atomic Mass). It is an organic acid containing one molecule of crystal water, with a crystal water content of approximately 8.58%.
    •  
    • Acidity: It is a tribasic weak acid, and its aqueous solution is weakly acidic. The pH value of a 10% (w/v) aqueous solution is 1.5~2.5, and the pH value of a 50g/L solution at 25℃ is 2.2~2.5. It has mild acidity, no strong corrosivity, and compared with inorganic acids, it has lower corrosivity to equipment and materials, making it safer to use.
    •  
    • Chelating property: It has excellent chelating ability for metal ions such as calcium, magnesium, and iron, and can form stable complexes with metal ions. It is often used in water treatment, washing, electroplating and other fields to remove metal impurities or prevent metal ions from interfering with the reaction process.
    •  
    • Reducibility: It has a certain reducibility, which can inhibit oxidation reactions, prevent oxidation and deterioration of products such as food and cosmetics, extend the shelf life of products, and at the same time, it can be used as an antioxidant synergist to enhance the stability of ingredients such as vitamin C.
    •  
    • Biodegradability: It is completely biodegradable, and the decomposition products are carbon dioxide and water, with no residues or pollution. It meets the requirements of green environmental protection and will not burden the environment.
    2.3 Safety Features

    • Non-toxic and harmless: Food-grade products meet national food safety standards and can be directly used in food, beverages, pharmaceuticals and other fields that come into contact with the human body. They can be normally metabolized after being ingested by the human body, with no cumulative toxicity, and the ADI value (Acceptable Daily Intake) is unrestricted (FAO/WHO standards).
    •  
    • Non-irritating: It has no obvious irritation to the skin and mucous membranes at room temperature. However, if in long-term contact with concentrated powder, it is necessary to avoid inhalation or direct contact with the eyes. It is recommended to wear protective masks and gloves during operation.
    •  
    • Compatibility: It has good compatibility with most substances and can be mixed with food additives such as sugars, proteins, preservatives, emulsifiers, and industrial raw materials without causing harmful reactions or affecting the original performance of the products.
