Sodium Citrate Powder

 

Sodium citrate powder is an organic compound that appears as a white crystalline powder. It is odorless, has a salty and cool taste, and is easily soluble in water but poorly soluble in ethanol. It is primarily produced by fermenting starch to produce citric acid, which is then neutralized with alkali.

1. Safe and Non-Toxic
The raw material is derived from grain and is recognized as food-grade and safe by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

 

2. Biodegradability
Sodium citrate powder decomposes into carbon dioxide and water in the natural environment, making it environmentally friendly.

 

3. Strong Chelating Ability
It effectively chelates metal ions such as calcium, magnesium, and iron, preventing scale formation and precipitation.

 

4. Solubility
It has excellent water solubility, which increases with increasing water temperature. It also has excellent pH buffering properties and can form a stable buffer system when combined with citric acid.

 

5. Wide Applicability
Sodium citrate powder is suitable for a wide range of applications, including food, medicine, and industry, and is low in corrosion to equipment.
