Sodium Citrate (Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate) acts as an acidity regulator, flavoring agent and stabilizer in food and beverage industries, and also serves as an anticoagulant. In the detergent industry, it can replace tripolyphosphate and function as an auxiliary agent for non-toxic detergents. It is also applied in brewing, injection preparations, photographic chemicals, electroplating and other fields.
With the above outstanding properties, Sodium Citrate (Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate) enjoys a wide range of applications. Non-toxic, featuring pH regulating capacity and favorable stability, it is well suited for the food industry. Sodium citrate ranks among the most in-demand food additives. It is mainly used as a flavor corrector, buffering agent, emulsifier, leavening agent, stabilizer and preservative. When compounded with citric acid, it works as a gelling agent, nutritional supplement and flavoring agent for various jams, jellies, fruit juices, beverages, cold drinks, dairy products and pastries.
