Product Technical Info

Sodium Citrate 5kg

1.0 Introduction

This header page serves to summarise product information for the named ingredient.

Sodium Citrate is derived from citric acid. It is used to adjust the pH of food product, usually from an acidic pH to neutral pH, particularly in beverage, fruit and savoury applications. This can be very important when used in conjunction with stabilisers such as pectins, where the use of a buffering agent will move the pH away from the region where undesirable gelation may occur.

Sometimes called ‘trisodium citrate’, it is a freeflowing white crystalline powder, easily soluble in water and insoluble in oils or alcohol.
