Anhydrous citric acid in granular form, food grade and USP.

Typical uses

  • Dry blending into powdered cleaners and descalers
  • Food and beverage acidulation
  • Batch make-up of passivation and cleaning solutions
  • Effervescent formulations, paired with bicarbonate

Anhydrous or monohydrate

Anhydrous is the more concentrated form and is the usual choice for dry blending, where the water of hydration in the monohydrate would cause caking or premature reaction. Monohydrate is available on request if your formulation specifies it.

Both are hygroscopic. Store sealed and dry — an open bag will cake.

Read the sheet before the first use

Section 2 covers the hazards, Section 8 the protective equipment actually required, and Section 10 what this must not be stored next to. Storage incompatibility is the single most common cause of serious chemical incidents.
