Product Description
Products Description of Citric Acid Monohydrate CAS#5949-29-1
Citric acid monohydrate generally appears as white, transparent or semi-transparent crystals, and may also be found in granular or powdered form. It is odorless, exhibits a pronounced sour taste with a mild astringent note, and contains about 8.58% crystal water. Its melting point ranges from 70 to 75 °C, with a relative density of 1.542 at 20 °C. When exposed to dry air for extended periods, it tends to effloresce as the water of crystallization is gradually lost. The crystals have an orthorhombic prismatic structure, and the critical temperature for conversion to anhydrous citric acid is 36.6 ± 0.15 °C. It dissolves readily in water, is soluble in ethanol, slightly soluble in ether, and insoluble in benzene, toluene, carbon disulfide, carbon tetrachloride, and fatty acids. As a strong acid, it readily reacts with a wide range of substances such as acids, bases, glycerol, salts, and metal ions, and it decomposes into various products when heated.
Product Applications of Citric Acid Monohydrate CAS#5949-29-1
Citric acid monohydrate is widely applied in the food and beverage industry as an acidulant, flavor enhancer, preservative, and freshness-maintaining agent. Beyond food use, it also serves important functions in the chemical, cosmetics, and detergent industries, where it is used as an antioxidant, plasticizer, and cleaning component. Overall, citric acid monohydrate has a broad range of applications, including water quality adjustment, enhancement of biological immunity, and support of growth promotion.

FAQ
Q1: Is Huafeng Chemical a manufacturer or a trader?
A: We are a professional service provider specializing in chemical foreign trade. Rather than being limited to the products of a single factory, we leverage the chemical industry cluster in Shandong Province to integrate production resources from multiple high-quality manufacturers. This allows us to offer a wide range of sourcing options—covering various product categories and origins—instead of simply pushing a single product. Furthermore, our core competitiveness lies in our professional foreign trade services (covering documentation, logistics, and regulatory compliance), ensuring a smooth and worry-free procurement process for you.
Q2: How is the security of my transaction guaranteed when working with Huafeng Chemical?
A: We strictly adhere to international trade rules (Incoterms® 2020) and accept various payment methods, such as Letters of Credit (L/C) and Telegraphic Transfers (T/T). For new clients, we support small-batch trial orders and can clearly define arbitration clauses and applicable laws within the contract. Additionally, we maintain a robust risk management system to help you mitigate common trade risks, such as exchange rate fluctuations, shipping delays, and document discrepancies.
Q3: Do you have experience serving clients in Russian-speaking regions?
A: Yes. We place great importance on the Russian-speaking market; our team includes Russian-speaking business professionals who are well-versed in the import regulations of Russia and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). We understand the importance of EAC certification to clients in these regions and can assist with related compliance inquiries. We have established connections with chemical traders across various CIS countries and have gained valuable experience in specialized packaging and temperature-controlled shipping designed to withstand harsh local winter conditions.
Q4: How do you guarantee product quality?
A: We implement a strict supplier qualification and periodic audit system. A Certificate of Analysis (COA)—issued by the original manufacturer—is provided with every shipment. We also welcome pre-shipment inspections conducted by internationally recognized third-party agencies such as SGS, BV, or ITS. Should the test results fail to meet the standards specified in the contract, you have the right to reject the goods or request a replacement.
