It appears as white to colorless crystals with a cool and salty taste and is stable in the air. The chemical formula is C6H5Na3O7. It is soluble in water and difficult to dissolve in ethanol. The aqueous solution is slightly alkaline and is often used as a buffer, chelating agent, and bacterial culture medium. It is used in medicine as a diuretic, expectorant, and anticoagulant, and is used in food, beverages, electroplating, photography, etc. It is one of the basic agents for biological experiments.
Product usage
Sodium citrate has the above-mentioned excellent properties and therefore has a wide range of uses. Sodium citrate is non-toxic, has pH adjustment properties and good stability, so it can be used in the food industry. Sodium citrate is used as a food additive, mainly as a flavoring agent, buffer, emulsifier, expander, stabilizer, etc.; in addition, sodium citrate is mixed with citric acid and used as a gelling agent, nutritional supplement, and flavoring agent for various jams, jellies, juices, beverages, cold drinks, dairy products, and cakes.
Medicine
In 1914, people found that sodium citrate has a long-lasting anticoagulant effect, which can preserve blood for a long time. In 1915, at Malta-Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, Richard Levinson demonstrated that the use of sodium citrate as an anticoagulant would transform the current transfusion operation where blood transfusion and blood donors must be at the same time and place into the blood bank system we use today. ] Sodium citrate also has an antiseptic effect and is used for the long-term storage of some drugs.
Construction industry
In the construction industry, sodium citrate can be added as a retarder when making concrete, which can improve the antifreeze, compression and tensile properties of cement products.
Electroplating and manufacturing industry
Because sodium citrate has good complexing properties, it is also very useful in the electroplating industry.
