Product Profile
Definition and Function
Monosodium Citrate is a sodium salt derived from citric acid in which one hydrogen ion is neutralized by sodium, producing a mildly acidic citrate compound. It serves as a versatile ingredient used as an acidity regulator, buffering agent, chelating agent, and mineral supplement ingredient.
Supply Chain Analysis
- Upstream (Raw Materials): Includes sugar, corn starch, cassava starch, or molasses (fermented by microorganisms such as Aspergillus niger to produce citric acid) and sodium sources such as sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, or sodium bicarbonate.
- Midstream (Manufacturing): Involves the controlled neutralization of citric acid to achieve the monosodium citrate form, followed by purification, crystallization, drying, milling, quality testing, and packaging.
- Downstream (Applications/Users):
- Food and Beverage Manufacturers: For pH adjustment and flavor enhancement.
- Pharmaceutical Companies: For oral solutions and effervescent formulations.
- Personal Care Producers: For buffering systems.
- Industrial Users: For specialty chemical formulations, water treatment chemicals, and metal processing applications.
Market Drivers and Dependencies
The market is closely linked to citric acid production capacity, agricultural feedstock availability, food additive regulations, and demand from the pharmaceutical and processed food industries.
