Also in the chemical industry, cosmetic industry and washing industry used as antioxidant, plasticizer and detergent, etc. It is widely used in food, medicine, daily chemical industry such as the most important organic acids. Citric acid can exist either in an anhydrous (water-free) form or as a monohydrate.The anhydrous form crystallizes from hot water, while the monohydrate forms when citric acid is crystallized from cold water. The monohydrate can be converted to the anhydrous form at c. 78 °C. Citric acid also dissolves in absolute (anhydrous) ethanol (76 parts of citric acid per 100 parts of ethanol) at 15 °C. It decomposes with loss of carbon dioxide above ca. 175 °C.
1. The dominant use of citric acid is as a flavoring and preservative in food and beverages, especially soft drinks.
2. Citric acid can be added to ice cream as an emulsifying agent to keep fats from separating, to caramel to prevent sucrose crystallization, or to recipes in place of fresh lemon juice.
