Product Description

Product Description

Sodium Citrate (Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate)

CAS No.: 6132-04-3
HS Code: 2918150000
Appearance: Colorless crystals or white crystalline powder.

Shelf Life: 24 months
Application: Sodium Citrate (Trisodium Citrate) is primarily used as a buffering agent, flavor enhancer, chelating agent/preservative aid, and emulsifying salt in the food and beverage industry; as a retarder in construction materials such as concrete, grout, plaster, and wall putty to improve workability; and as a chelating agent/water softener, pH buffer, detergent builder (notably as a phosphate substitute), and anticoagulant in the chemical, cosmetic, and cleaning industries.

Food & Beverage

Industrial & Household Cleaning

Construction Industry Retarder

Citric acid is a vital ingredient in food and beverages, serving as an acidulant, preservative, and flavor enhancer. It adds tartness to drinks and sweets, extends shelf life by preventing spoilage, and balances acidity in sauces and marinades for consistent taste.

As a powerful chelating agent, citric acid effectively removes limescale, rust, and mineral deposits in cleaning products. It softens water in detergents and serves as an eco-friendly alternative in sustainable cleaning formulations for industrial and home use.

Citric acid serves as an economical retarder in cement-based materials (concrete, grouts) and gypsum-based products (plasters, joint compounds). By delaying hydration in cement or crystal growth in gypsum, it extends workability for smooth application while preventing premature hardening in mortars, renders, and finishing compounds.
