FAQs
What is the difference between anhydrous and monohydrate citric acid?
Anhydrous citric acid lacks water molecules, offering higher concentration by weight. Monohydrate contains one water molecule per citric acid unit, slightly reducing its effective acidity.
Can I use this for food applications?
While LR grade is highly pure, food-grade citric acid undergoes additional certifications. For edible use, we recommend our food-grade variant available separately.
How should I store citric acid anhydrous?
Keep the container tightly sealed in a dry environment. Exposure to humidity may cause clumping but won’t affect chemical properties.
What’s the shelf life of this product?
When stored properly, citric acid anhydrous maintains stability for 3-5 years. Check the batch-specific expiry date on your package.
