77-92-9 Citric Acid Wholesale – Reduce Costs by 30% in 90 Days with Factory-Direct Quality

As a USA purchasing manager, you face skyrocketing citric acid prices, inconsistent quality, and high shipping fees from unreliable suppliers. Our 77-92-9 Citric Acid from Shijiazhuang Standard IMP&EXP CO.,LTD. delivers pharma/food-grade purity at competitive rates—direct from our fermentation factories.

77-92-9 Citric Acid, with CAS number 77-92-9, is the chemical compound C6H8O7, a weak organic tricarboxylic acid pivotal in food preservation, pharmaceutical formulations, and industrial applications. Known as citric acid anhydrous or monohydrate forms, it occurs naturally in citrus fruits but is commercially produced via fermentation of corn starch or molasses using Aspergillus niger molds. At Shijiazhuang Standard IMP&EXP CO.,LTD., our two dedicated fermentation departments yield over 50,000 MT annually of high-purity 77-92-9 citric acid, exported to USA, Brazil, Australia, and beyond.

This introduction dives deep into 77-92-9 citric acid's properties, ensuring you grasp its technical superiority for your operations. Molecular weight 192.12 g/mol, it's a colorless crystalline powder with 99.5-101% assay, pH 2.2-2.5 (5% solution), and low heavy metals (<1ppm As, <2ppm Pb). Our production adheres to BP/USP/FCC/EP standards, making it ideal for food additives like acidity regulators in beverages (e.g., sodas, juices), where it prevents microbial growth and enhances tartness without off-flavors.

In pharmaceuticals, 77-92-9 citric acid acts as an effervescent agent in tablets, buffering in syrups, and chelating in injectables. Our OEM/ODM capabilities allow custom granulations (20-100 mesh) for seamless integration into your formulations. For feed additives, it improves animal digestion, reducing diarrhea in poultry/swine by 25% per industry studies (source: Journal of Animal Science, 2023). We've supplied USA feed mills achieving 15% better FCR (Feed Conversion Ratio).

Quality control is rigorous: Raw corn starch is fermented at 30°C, decolorized via activated carbon, crystallized, and dried to <0.1% moisture. This yields clarity (10% solution: <20 APHA) and sulfate ash <0.05%. Unlike competitors' low-quality imports with impurities causing batch failures, our 77-92-9 citric acid passes third-party tests (SGS, Eurofins). Pricing? Factory-direct at $800-950/MT FOB Tianjin (2026 forecast), 20-30% below market due to vertical integration.

Logistics optimized for USA: Full containers (20-25MT/20FCL) via COSCO/MSK to LA/Long Beach in 25-30 days, with <1% damage rate. Payment: 30% T/T advance, 70% L/C at sight. Compliance? FDA GRAS status, Halal/Kosher certified. In 2025 alone, we shipped 10,000MT to North America, supporting brands like PepsiCo analogs. This isn't just acid—it's your ROI accelerator, cutting procurement costs while ensuring compliance.

Expand on uses: In detergents, it sequesters calcium (1:1 chelation), boosting efficacy by 40%. Cosmetics leverage its pH adjustment (3.1-6.2 range). Our high-speed delivery (stock 5,000MT) beats China's supply chain delays. Backed by 20+ years experience since 2004, Standard IMP&EXP pioneered monosodium glutamate alongside citric acid lines.
