PH Regulators for Agrochemicals

Glacial Acetic Acid Description: Maximum-Concentration Natural Acidulant At Quimiconsult we offer food grade Glacial Acetic Acid, a clear, colorless liquid with a minimum acetic acid content of 99.8% by weight, produced to Food Chemicals Codex (FCC) standards and Kosher certified. It is the most concentrated and pure form of acetic acid, commonly known as the active ingredient in vinegar, obtained through distillation and purification processes that remove virtually all residual water. Hence the term "glacial," which refers to its tendency to solidify at temperatures close to 16.7°C when it reaches maximum purity. Glacial acetic acid is one of the most versatile short-chain organic acids available to the food, meat, pickling, bakery, sauce and industrial cleaning industries. Its mechanism of action as a preservative is based on lowering the pH of the medium to levels that inhibit the growth of bacteria, molds and yeasts, combined with the direct antimicrobial action of the undissociat…

Lactic Acid 88%: High-Purity Natural Preservative At Quimiconsult we offer food grade Lactic Acid 88%, manufactured by Henan Jindan, one of the most recognized lactic acid producers worldwide. It is a colorless to light yellowish translucent liquid, produced through the controlled fermentation of natural carbohydrates, which gives it a bio-based profile, high biodegradability and compatibility with modern formulations that demand cleaner, more natural ingredients. With a guaranteed purity between 87.5% and 88.5% (w/w), this organic acid acts as a pH regulator, antimicrobial preservative, flavor enhancer and texture control agent in a wide variety of food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical matrices. Its hygroscopic nature, odorless character and complete solubility in water and alcohol make it versatile and easy to incorporate into continuous industrial processes. Unlike synthetic preservatives, lactic acid is a compound that the human body naturally produces and metabolizes, making it a pre…

Propionic Acid USP Description: Short-Chain Antimicrobial Preservative At Quimiconsult we offer USP grade Propionic Acid, a clear, colorless liquid with a minimum purity of 99.5%, produced under the strict standards of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). It is a short-chain organic fatty acid with powerful antimicrobial properties, widely used as a preservative, acidulant and antifungal agent in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical and animal feed industries. Its mechanism of action is based on the ability of the molecule, in its undissociated form, to penetrate the cell membrane of fungi, molds and certain bacteria, interfering with their metabolism and stopping their proliferation. This action is especially effective in products with a pH between 4.0 and 6.0, the typical range of breads, cheeses, cured meats and processed foods. Unlike other synthetic preservatives, propionic acid is a compound that occurs naturally in certain fermented foods, which positions it favorably in formula…

Product description: Sodium Citrate, a multifunctional food additive At Quimiconsult we offer Sodium Citrate (trisodium citrate dihydrate), a sodium salt of citric acid widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and beverage industries as an acidity regulator, emulsifier, preservative and sequestering agent. It comes as a white, odorless crystalline powder with a slightly salty taste and an assay purity of 99.0% to 100.5% that meets the specifications of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and the Food Chemicals Codex (FCC), the two most demanding reference standards for food and pharmaceutical ingredients worldwide. Sodium citrate is characterized by its hygroscopic nature, meaning it readily absorbs and combines with moisture from the air. This property makes it highly soluble in water, making it easy to incorporate into aqueous systems such as beverages, injectable solutions, syrups, sauces and liquid formulations of all kinds. Its ability to act simultaneously as a pH regu…
