Citric Acid Anhydrous (Food/BP Grade)

Citric Acid Anhydrous is an organic acid commonly utilized for its acidifying, flavoring, and preservative properties. It is widely applied in the food industry as a natural acidulant to enhance flavor and act as a preservative by inhibiting microbial growth. This grade is also compliant with BP, USP, FCC, and E330 standards, ensuring suitability for food and pharmaceutical applications. In industrial settings, citric acid functions as a chelating agent, binding metal ions to improve product stability and prevent scale formation in detergents and cleaning agents. It also finds use in water treatment processes to soften water by sequestering calcium and magnesium ions. Handling this anhydrous form requires storage in dry, cool environments to prevent caking and degradation, especially in regions with high humidity.
