Al Aqsa Chemical is proud to present our high-purity Citric Acid Monohydrate (food grade) , directly imported from China to meet the diverse needs of the Pakistani market. As a leading chemical supplier, we understand the critical importance of quality, consistency, and reliability in your raw material sourcing. Our Citric Acid Monohydrate, with its exceptional purity, is an indispensable ingredient across numerous industries, from food and pharmaceuticals to industrial applications. We are committed to providing a product that not only meets but exceeds international standards, ensuring optimal performance in your formulations.
Our Citric Acid Monohydrate is a versatile and essential compound, widely recognized for its acidic properties, chelating abilities, and preservative qualities. It is a white, crystalline powder, highly soluble in water, and known for its characteristic tart taste. This makes it a cornerstone ingredient in the food and beverage industry, where it functions as an acidulant, flavor enhancer, and natural preservative. Beyond its culinary applications, its robust chemical profile makes it invaluable in pharmaceutical formulations, cosmetics, and various industrial cleaning and processing operations. Al Aqsa Chemical ensures that every batch of our Citric Acid Monohydrate adheres to stringent quality control measures, guaranteeing a product you can trust for its purity and performance.
The distinction between citric acid monohydrate vs citric acid anhydrous lies primarily in the presence of water of crystallization. Citric acid monohydrate contains one molecule of water (H2O) per molecule of citric acid, giving it a molecular weight of 210.14 g/mol . In contrast, anhydrous citric acid lacks this water molecule, resulting in a slightly lower molecular weight and different physical properties, such as melting point.
Citric Acid Monohydrate is a key import commodity in Pakistan, with significant volumes sourced primarily from China. Data from October 2023 to September 2024 indicates that Pakistan imported 725 shipments of Citric Acids, with China accounting for a substantial 92% (656 shipments) of these imports. Germany and Austria also contribute to Pakistan’s supply, though to a much lesser extent, with 3% and 2% respectively. This highlights China’s dominant role as a supplier of citric acid to Pakistan. The global import landscape for citric acid is led by the United States, India, and Vietnam, collectively representing 54% of total global imports. The demand for citric acid in Pakistan is driven by its extensive applications across various sectors.
The application of citric acid monohydrate in food is extensive, leveraging its properties as a natural acidulant, flavoring agent, and preservative. It is commonly used in beverages, confectionery, jams, jellies, and processed foods to impart a tart taste, adjust pH, and enhance shelf life by inhibiting microbial growth and preventing oxidation. For instance, it’s a common ingredient in soft drinks and fruit juices to provide a refreshing sourness. In candies and desserts, it balances sweetness and adds a tangy flavor. Its ability to chelate metal ions also helps prevent discoloration and maintain the quality of food products. The food-grade quality of our Citric Acid Monohydrate ensures its safe and effective use in all food processing applications.
For citric acid monohydrate pharmaceutical use, its high purity and specific chemical properties are paramount. It serves multiple functions in pharmaceutical formulations, including acting as an excipient, a pH adjuster, an anticoagulant, and a chelating agent. It is often found in effervescent tablets, syrups, and oral solutions to improve palatability and stability. Its chelating properties are utilized in blood preservation and in formulations where metal ion sequestration is necessary. The pharmaceutical industry demands strict adherence to quality standards, and our product meets these rigorous requirements, ensuring its suitability for medicinal applications.
Understanding the citric acid monohydrate MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) is crucial for safe handling, storage, and disposal. While generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for its intended uses, especially in food and pharmaceuticals, it can cause irritation upon direct contact with skin or eyes, and inhalation of dust may cause respiratory irritation. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and eye protection should be worn when handling large quantities. Storage should be in a cool, dry place, away from incompatible materials. Al Aqsa Chemical provides comprehensive safety data sheets for all our products, ensuring our clients have the necessary information for safe operations.
The citric acid monohydrate price in Pakistan is subject to various factors, including global supply and demand, international freight costs, and local market dynamics, including fluctuations in the dollar exchange rate. As direct importers from China, Al Aqsa Chemical strives to offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality. We maintain strong relationships with our suppliers to ensure a consistent supply chain and cost-effectiveness, passing on the benefits to our customers. For the most accurate and up-to-date pricing, we encourage direct inquiries, as prices can fluctuate based on market conditions and order volume. Our goal is to provide the best value for high-quality Citric Acid Monohydrate in the Pakistani market.
